Well that was fun! Reverse Colouring was enjoyed by all at Elvington Art Class 'Pareidolia' drawing, recognising images in the paint. Like seeing an elephant in the clouds or a face in your food. Using your imagination and 'sitting' in your creative flow is Neurologically beneficial 🧠 Get your pens and paints out.

Thank me later.....

Thinking of visiting Bugweed's for the first time? Here's what you can expect...

We're tucked away at Unit 3, Marrtree Business Park, Stirling Road, York (YO30 4AB), just off the Clifton Moor ring road. You'll find us behind Starbucks, with plenty of free parking right outside, so no hunting for a space before you've even started your crafty adventure!

Can we ask a little favour? We're amazed by how many people still say, "I never knew you were here!" If you know someone who loves sewing, quilting, knitting, crochet or crafting, please share this post and help them discover Bugweed's. Word of mouth means the world to a small independent business like ours, and every share helps us reach another creative person who might just become part of our wonderful community.

If you've never visited before, we'd love to welcome you. Whether you're a sewist, quilter, knitter, crocheter or just looking for a little creative inspiration, there's something here for everyone.

Thank you—and we hope to see lots of new faces this summer!
