Over the summer, the library hosted a four week sewing class for beginners run by expert instructors volunteering for the library service.

Mini Meetups enjoying the floor cushions

Customers learned how to operate a sewing machine to partake in some up-cycling projects including book cushion covers made from recycled baby blankets that are now used in Bookbug sessions, Breastfeeding workshops held in the centre and the weekly Mini Meetup group for new parents and their babies in the library.
