Video Demos

Video Demos

Regular visitors to our shop will remember how Fridays were the day our customers would eagerly gather to watch Wendy and our other Bramble Stitchers demonstrate techniques, notions and patchwork blocks. Obviously due to limitations on social gathering we have had to temporarily suspend these but we were concerned our customers would miss out. 

So back in August 2020 we dipped our toe into the world of YouTube demos and we've been thrilled at how popular our videos have become with fabulous feedback & support. And the added bonus is that our demos are now available for all our customers, wherever you are in the world.

The videos are available on Fridays and in each video Wendy aims to demonstrate techniques, gadgets, patchwork blocks and hopefully new projects for you to try. Whether you are a beginner or experienced stitcher we encourage you to grab a coffee, sit back and enjoy Wendy's latest demo. 

If you've missed our previous demos here's a list of what's available:
