Let's start with some rather lovely news this week - Manningtree has been named the East regional winner in The Times Best Places to Live guide. I was actually interviewed by The Times radio team last week (and sworn to secrecy!), so there's’s been a quiet little excitement behind the scenes - and such a joy to now be able to share it. Enjoy this news and read all about what's happening at NaviStitch and in the Sail Loft Gallery

The Sail Loft Gallery is about to step fully into spring mode, with the Spring Exhibition opening this week and the gallery filling with fresh work from a wonderful group of artists and makers. Alongside that, there are also a few new workshop announcements and creative plans taking shape - so here’s a little update

There’s a real sense of seasonal shift at NaviStitch at the moment - one exhibition in full flow, another just around the corner, and spring quietly gathering momentum. Here’s what’s happening in the shop, the Sail Loft Gallery and beyond over the coming weeks.
