A Free Motion Play Day Saturday 26th September 10am-4pm

A much-requested workshop is finally here! Join me for a day of free-motion experimentation and playful stitching techniques.

Throughout the day we’ll explore stitching directly onto paper, transferring photographs onto fabric and stitching into them, as well as combining paint and stitch . This workshop is all about throwing out the rule book, embracing experimentation and discovering what happens when we allow ourselves to play.

You’ll leave with a collection of unique stitched samples that would look beautiful framed, incorporated into future textile projects, or simply used as inspiration to continue exploring at home.

Tea, coffee and a sweet treat will be provided throughout the day, but please bring your own lunch.

The workshop will take place in my new first-floor studio at Kingfisher Galleries and Studios, 2 Gate Farm, Kiddington, Woodstock, OX20 1DB. Please note the studio is accessed via one flight of stairs.
