Description

The Contented Crochet Crowd is our members only area for all the graduates of our crochet courses (Learn to Crochet the Easy Way and Intermediate – Understanding a pattern).

You can also gain entry if you can demonstrate that you are able to follow a crochet pattern and create a simple garment or homeware item using the 3 major stitches (dc, htr & tr)

In the group you will have access to the following:

🧶 An optional C.A.L (Crochet along) – We will be working together on a pattern or design usually from an external designer.
🧶 Regular ZOOM classes with Claire accessible only to members of the club (replays available to download)
🧶 Regular rooms – no need to crochet alone on a weeknight or afternoon. Simply open up the room and hook along with your friends
🧶 Discounts from suppliers and pattern designers
🧶 A Monthly ZOOM social and opportunity for Q&A with Claire
🧶 Weekly posts sharing top tips and patterns
🧶 Regular challenges with prizes!
At present the group forum is a private facebook group so you will need to be a facebook user.  All online courses and content will be available to access via this website.
Membership is £8 per month (paid quarterly at £24) and is on a subscription basis.  Once you have joined your membership will automatically renew each quarter until you cancel it at which point you will leave the group when your final months funds are used up.  You are entitled to cancel your membership at any time.
To apply to join the club please email beautifulthingshq@gmail.com telling us that you have either a) completed both of our beginner/intermediate online courses and sending a picture of your evidence or b) tell us a little bit about your crochet journey in an email evidencing some of the things you’ve made in the past to prove that you can follow a pattern.
We will then send you a link to pay your first quarters fees and add you to the facebook group.

In light of todays announcements we are still a lo In light of todays announcements we are still a long way off from being able to resume normal activity at BTHQ.  I have to admit it is worrying and very concerning to me financially but I will do all I can to ensure that BTHQ remains standing for you to return this summer. 

Your support of our online learning offering and fabric shop has been amazing and I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for continuing to support me.

Until non - essential retail can re-open we will remain CLOSED and continue to offer a postal and click and collect service for supplies.

Hopefully on the 12th April we will open the shop again and you will be able to come inside and purchase.  This will be for reduced hours though.  It is simply not viable for me to open 5 days a week 9am - 5pm.  Until I have a guarantee of this date I will not be making any plans regarding hours etc.

Opening the shop does not allow me to be able to resume teaching.  This will sadly likely start in May or even June.

As you know BTHQ doesn't fall into any business category and for the entire year I have had to make up the rules as I go along!

It is my feeling that once we can mix in small groups indoors again in cafes etc then it will be safe for us to resume some form of classes.  Again I will be waiting until this time before making any plans and will not be taking any bookings or scheduling any classes until I know more.

At this point I would prefer to wait until the 21st June when hopefully full lockdown will be lifted.  Whilst I can potentially offer some sessions before this time it does need to be financially viable for me to do so.

In the meantime as the weather warms up I will be resuming BTHQ Alfresco as and when the weather plays ball and you will be welcome to meet outside for knit and natter or any lap based crafting with your friends. 

Please keep an eye on our social media for any updates and bear with me as I do my best to follow the somewhat wobbly 'roadmap' that has been given to me today.
Can you ever find the perfect skirt? Too long, too Can you ever find the perfect skirt? Too long, too short, too tight, too floaty.

No? Then make your own!

When I was younger, I always used to wear the shortest, tightest thing I could find, but as I've got older, I want and need to cover my knees and divert the attention away from my tummy!

Yes, I've found some skirts that are almost right. But I could never find the perfect one until I made my own!

I've just launched a brand new sewing course designed for all levels of sewist and for the next week you can pre-order it at a reduced price ahead of its release on the 1st March.

Find out more and pre-order your course on our website in the online sewing course section.
