A fabulous day of Sewing, Chatting and swapping hints and tips
Just to give you a bit of background before I tell you about the Sewing Sewcial Events - my sister-in-law, Christine Deal, and I have been sewing for quite a while. We were both taught to sew by our mums but Christine was a lot more advanced than me. She had made various things over the years and was a whizz at making her own clothes and alterations whereas I had taken to making soft furnishings and had even sold bespoke furnishings - basically square pieces of material sewn together!
Then COVID hit and (along with the rest of the country) we dug out our sewing machines. We both decided to make masks and scrubs bags - Christine donated all of the money she sold the masks for to charity and I made scrubs bags for nurses and key workers at various hospitals in the local area.
Christine has gone on to totally revamp her wardrobe, set up her own YouTube channel, helping other sewers (https://youtube.com/@geministitchers1449) and I have invested my time in making The Mill House everything you see today.
So, the Sewing Sewcial Events are really bringing our two loves together to create a fabulous day where like minded people can come together and swap hints and tips, just chat and enjoy each other's company!
The first event that we held on 2nd August was a big success - Denise from www.instagram.com/tillymintsews won the raffle prize of a fabulous unique tote bag, made with material from www.instagram.com/flamingofabricsuk with more material inside and a little bottle of prosecco (to reward the winner after a long day of sewing).
We've organised another event on 6th September which is now fully booked and are planning our next event for October - date to follow soon. We are also planning to hold these events on a fortnightly basis so that sewers have more of a choice of when they can attend and fit things in.
Whatever your celebration - allow our events team to take care of everything for you. Contact us to discuss your celebration and make an appointment to visit us so we can show you our newly refurbished venue and all that it has to offer. Whether you are celebrating a birthday, organising a wedding, or enquiring about conference facilities - we'd love to help.
As a privately owned venue, we place great importance on each individual celebration and we take every effort to consider all aspects of your special day. Our events team are available to assist you with every detail from initial enquiry through to planning the finer details and the running of your event on the day itself.

I couldn't recommend this place enough ,if there were 10 stars that's what they would have been given . This is the second function me and my family have attended here first my nephew's wedding and last night my nephew's 30th masquerade ball and it looked amazing and from the minute you arrive you couldn't be made to feel more welcome

I've recently had the pleasure of attending more than one function at this recently refurbished venue. The building is really lovely, with a stunning function room and stylish bar. The food is very reasonably priced and first class, all of our guests were very complementary

My brother and sister-in-law got married at The Mill House Venue on Friday and I literally couldn't fault a thing. The whole day was perfect, the staff were all amazing and the bride and groom had the day they dreamed of!

Outstanding Afternoon Tea - The Mill House put on a special Afternoon Tea for Mother's Day and it was fabulous.
The attention to detail was second to none, with the whole tea being served in a very unique manner. There was also the option of gentleman's tea and children's tea so no-one was left out.
The staff were very attentive and chatted with us and smiled throughout the whole afternoon.

Can't recommend highly enough, had the school leavers party today. What a beautiful venue, Sharon has done an amazing job refurbishing and was brilliant with helping me organise a fab party. All the staff was so friendly will 100% be having an event here again.

We had a christening party here a couple weeks ago. What a brilliant venue. Sharon and her team couldn't do enough to help and made it very special through lots of little extra touches. The venue itself is lovely and a great size for any function big or small.
