We have easy access for wheelchair users and a wheelchair accessible loo. Our shop has quilting supplies, books and cards.

New Horizons is a group of sixteen former City and Guilds students. They meet fortnightly to work on group projects, critique each other's work, and invite textile related artists to teach and discuss new techniques. 'SiX Stories'. Each member of SiX has challenged herself to think about stories, legends and storytelling and translate the mental images that they conjure into drawings, paintings and textiles. Welsh Quilt Study Group "So much information has been lost to us because it has never been recorded and by gathering together and sharing knowledge we may be able to find out more and also keep our quilting traditions alive."
