For the past five years, Sherryn Evans has driven daughter Paige, 11, across the coast searching for craft lessons and now there\u2019s finally lessons close to home.<\/p>\n
Ms Evans said since they discovered Leonie Sievers\u2019 Craft Club for tweens at Torquay\u2019s Spring Creek Community House they\u2019ve been blown away by what\u2019s on offer.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have an 11-year-old whose passion is craft, we have spent the last five or so years travelling to Geelong and Ocean Grove to undertake classes to fuel this passion,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhile Torquay certainly has a creative community, there has in the past been limited options here for the local arty\/crafty children, and certainly those that have been offered have not been sustained over time.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ms Evans said the Craft Club has been an incredible addition to her daughter\u2019s life along with other children who attend.<\/p>\n
\u201cLeonie is a qualified teacher with an obvious passion for craft. Her club has been running all year for tweens and involves kids making a different product each week from a range of materials,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cFrom handmade flowers, bath bombs, canvas paintings, wire art, clay creations, etc). It is my daughter\u2019s happiest hour of the week due to the products created and the positive atmosphere that Leonie creates.\u201d<\/p>\n
Paige said that the club was a fantastic opportunity for people passionate about crafting to come along and learn new techniques and tricks.<\/p>\n
\u201cCraft is my favourite thing all week! It\u2019s so much fun. Leonie is amazing! She is so kind. We make different things each week like clay sculptures, paper flowers, latch hooking, even slime,\u201d Paige said.<\/p>\n
\u201cI love seeing all the teasers Leonie puts up on Instagram and Facebook about what we will be doing in the next lesson. I encourage any crafty kid to join. Craft club is awesome!\u201d<\/p>\n
