I have to say, I'm in love with this place. I love not only the lovely ladies who run it. I love the concept behind it also.

AND I'm Really very much enjoying the Craft class's. I have finally found in Bendigo, a place where I can go to learn and feel comfortable doing it.
• I have taken many classes over the years. Never have I found a place to just sit, share and can be totally at ease within yourself and its ambiance.
• I have enjoyed my time within S'wing Cafe so much in the Yak-n-yarn class
• (bring your wool and needles for only $4 for the ENTIRE MORNING)
• Children's Morning's, Kids hear a story while mum goes to natter!
• I'm shouting S'wing's praise to who ever will listen, LOUDLY!!!
• I feel all craft is a long lost tradition to be passed on. This is a place that is Conducive to creativity, to sit without Noise as there is room's in a lovely Old Home Setting that has been Beautifully refurbished.
Its not only that time's are changing so much. Men saying home to look after the kids while his wife goes to work, both working to support their family, we all live in this ever changing world.
A woman's place is no longer just in the home, Its her duty to create using every aspect of her skills as a housewife, she can not only create a beautiful home in which to live, a family other's would like to spend time with, food that others would like to eat-try-learn how to make- share recipes and so on.
A woman, any woman has within herself to pass on to the generations that follow and those in front of her, her craft in all aspects of being a woman.
Through the generations there have been subjected to many fad craft's but with anything there are always the one's that stay with us. I feel those are being lost, S'wing Cafe have within your wall's not only a place for anyone, Male Or Female to be creative, but a place to also learn that is conducive to fill your creative needs whatever they be.
Also helping in your way to keep these crafts alive as they should be, passed on from one to another through the Generation's.
Sewing, Knitting, Crochet, Paper Craft, and much more, as do our Men these day's. What can be more Cathartic than to break up a few tiles and create a beautiful Mosaic to go in your home.
Anyone can do these with someone to teach them how. These Craft's are not only being lost, but also are the place's in which you go to learn them. They aren't even taught in schools anymore. I feel so very humbled to be apart of this beautiful place S'wing Cafe has created, so I can now learn have a chat and be sociable another skill that is being lost due to social media.
Social media has it's place, as has everything, but to be able to interact with others is something you again learn. I feel you have provided, such a place with in the S'wing Cafe.

NOT JUST THAT… But you can also Buy Handmade Craft all made by Local's.
