Outline Of The Society
The Tandridge Handicraft Society was founded in 2003. Its aim
is to encourage crafts in the area. The membership consists of both
experts and amateurs and provides inspiration and guidance for all, to create
both beautiful and practical things. Some of the crafts which members are
working on include patchwork, quilting, knitting, beading, canvaswork
(or tapestry), textile art, embroidery, appliqué, lace-making and crochet. The membership comprises all ages and the
society is keen to keep crafts alive in the Tandridge
District by passing them down to younger members. It is a very lively and
friendly group.
