sew make believe is a Warwickshire-based sewing, craft and book club. We meet fortnightly on a Wednesday night in Leamington at 8pm-10pm. Our meetings alternate between structured meetups and casual meetups.  The structured meetups take the form of workshops, where you can learn a new skill or project and the casual meetups are sit 'n' sews (or come 'n' crafts - you don't have to sew!) which allow you to work on your latest project. Every couple of months, we have a book club discussion. See sew …
