Lorna says:

“Piping on a cushion cover really adds that extra touch and gives a really professional finish. Inserting a zip alongside the piping can be a bit tricky - let me guide you through the process. The finished cushions really do look fantastic - wow your family and friends with your new skills!!”

The Venue:

The Farthing Workshop, 13 High Street, Kenilworth, CV8 1LY

The Farthing workshop is a stone’s throw from The Farthing Gallery in Kenilworth. Parking is available nearby at the Abbeyfields car park. You can then walk through the church grounds and the Farthing Workshop is behind the shops on High St. You go behind the shops, down a path and you will see 2 conservatory buildings ahead of you. The Farthing workshop is down a few steps to the left hand conservatory building.

**As the access is via some steps this venue would not be suitable for those who cannot manage steps - please get in touch if you have any questions about this**
