Lea Cawthorne teaches hand-quilting basics at the Backspace, and participants take home a small quilted wall hanging. The $30 fee includes all materials, and spots are limited.
A neighborhood shop in Ditmas Park where the shelves are packed with handmade jewelry, puzzles, cards, and home goods from local and fair-trade makers. The selection changes often, so it’s easy to lose track of time poking around for surprises, and the back room hosts readings, markets, and workshops that keep things lively. It’s the rare gift shop where you actually want to hang out.
