Nature's Spring: Drawing and Embroidery workshop

You will be guided through a variety of playful and experimental drawing techniques allowing you to create your own design.

As well as learning a range of stitches and making your own hand embroidered design you'll take away with you all the tools to keep stitching at home including a wooden embroidery hoop, needle and two threads in colours of your choice.

There will also be the opportunity to have a go at machine embroidery and incorporate this into your design if you wish.

The workshop will be led by Nadine Shaban, a local artist who over the years has spent many hours lost in the art of embroidery, incorporating it into clothing, sculptures and paintings.

Fear not if you think you can't draw or have never picked up a needle and thread. The afternoon will be relaxed, allowing you to go at your own pace, with support and guidance throughout the workshop. Or if you're an experienced sewer and would like to come along to make something new and be inspired it will be great to see you there too.

All materials and equipment will be provided. But if you have a piece of fabric or clothing that you'd like to customise with some embroidery feel free to bring that along.

Under 16’s must be accompanied by an adult.

Drinks and light refreshments will be available.
