We've also introduced a Kaiapoi Sewing Suite induction on a Wednesday. Book into an induction to learn the basics of operating a sewing machine - after, you can use it whenever the library's open, no bookings needed. Plus, we've got our Maker Modules on hand to kick-start your first sewing project!
