Details of the five different workshops can be seen here. I have an ongoing requirement for envelopes, all sizes are welcome and any quantities will be gratefully received. If you are not planning to attend any of the fairs where I will be at in the near future please contact me and I will try to arrange to collect them. Are you a member of a textile group?
