SEW A VINTAGE PEG BAG WITH PHILIPPA KING - MONDAY 11TH MAY 2026
At Curious House, we celebrate the small rituals of everyday life—and what’s more joyful than a crisp line of washing in the sunshine? To make the task even lovelier, Philippa has designed a charming peg bag that is both practical and beautiful, crafted to last for years.
In this hands-on workshop, you’ll create your own peg bag from scratch using thick vintage linen and colourful fabric scraps, adding your personal touch with simple embroidery stitches. By the end of the day, you’ll have a unique, handmade peg bag that’s as durable as it is delightful—an accessory you’ll enjoy using every washday.

Learn to cut, assemble, and stitch your peg bag from vintage fabrics
Discover easy embroidery techniques to personalise your design
Plenty of creative inspiration, with the freedom to make it your own
