Country Crafting! Get Involved!

Hoot! Hoot! Country Crafting! is finally here!Country Crafting! is a brand new monthly event run by Clare Nicolson (that’s me!) and friends that takes place on the 1st Sunday of every month alongside Fuzzy Felt Folk at Macsorleys Music Bar, Glasgow. Have you ever wanted to embroider the face of Hank Williams onto a pretty cushion for your mama? Have you ever tried to grow a beard but can’t get it quite right? Why not knit your own! Have you ever wanted to sit in the pub all day colouring in pretty pictures? Um…Country Crafting! can help you make all these things and lots more. There’ll be monthly projects, drawing competitions and special handmade prizes all set to a hand picked selection of country music from Fuzzy Felt Folk’s vintage vault and contemporary catalogue.

We’re launching on Sunday 1st February and will be crafting up a storm at the Fuzzy Felt Folk 2nd birthday party featuring Schnapps and The Invisible Republic. Every month there’ll be very special things to make and do like…

Knit your own beard!
Country superstar sock puppets!
Keep it in the lines colouring in!
Country cross stitch!

Come down to Macsorleys on the 1st Sunday of every month and get involved! Entry is FREE! There will be very special crafty classes that you can take part in for a small fee, very special crafty kits you can buy to take home and try yourself, or you can just sit back with a couple of beers, try some colouring in and enjoy the Fuzzy Felt Folk country catalogue!
