Crafting Together

Looking for the perfect opportunity to finish those incomplete or long-forgotten projects? Our upcoming Sunday Session is designed just for that! Bring along any works-in-progress (and the supplies you need) and enjoy a relaxed, supportive space to finally give your WIPs/UFOs (aka: works in progress/unfinished felted objects) the attention they deserve.

De-Stash Sale

This session comes with an added treat: our founder, Elizabeth Bonnar, and Clare Brophy, former guild secretary, will be hosting a very special de-stash sale. They are parting with some of their felting supplies —an inspiring assortment for makers, fibre artists, and curious crafters alike.

There will be bagged Merino fibre, Assorted other breeds of wool, ArtYarns, Curly locks, Tussah silk fibre, Silk fabrics, and more available for purchase.

All proceeds will be donated to the Guild toward a future educational project. We’ll be accepting both cash and credit cards for convenience.

Throughout the Session, Elizabeth will demonstrate feltmaking using the various fibres and fabrics available. Come and see!

The sale is open to ALL. One does not need to be a member of the guild.

Please spread the word amongst your textile-loving friends!

When: 10:30 AM to 12:30 PM

Where: CIE Sports Hall, Library Square, Inchicore, Kilmainham, Dublin, D08 PA07

Directions

If coming by car, turn off Grattan Crescent onto South Terrace, then right onto West Terrace, and arrive at the Square outside the Hall. It is the large building facing Library Square.

If taking public transit from the centre of Dublin, the G1, G2 and number 60 buses stop on Sarsfield Road. The stop on the route from town is 2643. Facing the stone wall, turn left and walk back approximately 16 strides from the bus stop to go through a ‘hole’ in the stone wall. Walk along Inchicore Terrace North past the houses, and you will see the CIE Hall as you come around the corner.(Do not walk forward from the bus stop towards the train underpass). 

Additional Information:

To add to the festive spirit, please bring mince pies or other festive desserts to share. Also, please bring a travel mug so we can reduce the use of disposable cups.

And, as this is the season of coughs and sneezes, please refrain from coming if you feel unwell. We do have the benefit of technology – there will be access via Zoom. We will email a Zoom link to members on Friday afternoon.
