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

Here's a challenge for any of you who made your own swimwear with @charlottesews and @mrsmack_metime last summer.

I'm not sure when we will get to wear it for the purpose it was intended so get out in the snow and send us your pictures.

I'm Claire and I've been in business at BTHQ for over 8 years.⁠
⁠
Before that, I used to sell my own makes.⁠
⁠
I have lost count of the number of people I've taught to sew and craft! ⁠
⁠
It gives me such a buzz to know that I've passed on my knowledge to all those people.⁠
⁠
I absolutely love what I do and most of all, I LOVE our customers. ⁠
⁠
Seeing people develop their skills and learn new techniques makes me tick big time! ⁠
⁠
What would you love to learn in the world of sewing and crafting?⁠
