Important notes
Please bring a cushion in case your chair height doesn’t suit and your usual sewing equipment.
Your sewing machine should be recently serviced, oiled with a new needle.
Health and Safety regulations require your machine must have had the power supply cord tested by
a registered electrician within the last year. Any extension cords must also be tested. Multi boxes
must have surge protection and have been checked in the last year. We will have on-site certification
available on Registration Day.
