We are an enthusiastic group willing to have a go at different sewing projects, exchanging ideas and sharing knowledge as we go. We have an inclusive approach and group members are able to suggest projects for us to try over the year.
Our 2022 challenge was to explore different sewing techniques which could be used to sew household and decorative items. Over the year we tried our hand at Trapunto, Sashiko and Blackwork. We started 2023 with Japanese Folded patchwork.
During 2021 our group challenge was to each sew a small square using any sewing technique on the theme of Gosport, its history and landmarks. We had individual squares from seven members which were collated into a wall hanging to be used at u3a publicity events (see photo).
