The Stitches & Craft Show will inspire and inform you with a range of ‘make and take’ classes, FREE crafty how-to seminars and the ‘A is for all skill levels’ beginner-based activities.

Special guest at this year’s show is acclaimed craft artist Skye Rogers. Sick of spending money on craft activities for your kids that hardly get used, Skye will show you not only how to re-use all of your unwanted junk mail, but how to make something truly beautiful out of it. Learn how to make paper necklaces, dolls, and flowers.

In attendance at the show will also be Julia Taylor, runner-up from hit Australian TV Show Masterchef. Meet Julia and learn the art of cake decorating & sugar-craft! We all know kids enjoy sugar AND helping mum out in the kitchen. FREE daily demonstrations including Decorating Ginger Cookies – get creative with Julia and learn line and flooding icing techniques followed by decorating with cachous, sprinkles, or glitter. YUM!

The Sydney show even has its very own Children’s Craft Corner, an area where the little ones can create and paint plaster moulds and get creative using coloured sand.

The Stitches & Craft Show is truly an attraction for anyone who is interested in, or curious about; beading, stamping, quilting, knitting, painting, textile art, cake decorating and many more exciting crafty things. A huge feature of the show is that visitors can get their hands on a whole range of crafty delights to buy, take home and create their own masterpiece. Kids will now have the perfect reason to hassle their mum and dads on a rainy day with a crafty activity that the whole family can enjoy!

Jolene

Jolene enjoys writing, sharing and connecting with other like-minded women online – it also gives her the perfect excuse to ignore Mount-Washmore until it threatens to bury her family in an avalanche of Skylander T-shirts and Frozen Pyjama pants. (No one ever knows where the matching top is!) Likes: Reading, cooking, sketching, dancing (preferably with a Sav Blanc in one hand), social media, and sitting down on a toilet seat that one of her children hasn’t dripped, splashed or sprayed on. Dislikes: Writing pretentious crap about herself in online bio’s and refereeing arguments amongst her offspring.
