SURFACE TENSION WORKSHOPS
My Workshops are aimed at inspiring beginners and those wishing to experiment with new ideas in textiles and stitch.

These Workshops can be for a limited group of four at my Studio or the Gallery or for a larger group at an alternative venue - please contact me for more details.

Current Day Workshops include -

Learning to Look
Using source material to provide exciting design ideas in stitch.

Sketchbooks
Recording your inspiration and creating a personal resource.

Limited to One Stitch
Using textures and colour to explore one stitch and create surprising results

Stitch a Memory
Not a sampler and not a collage, something in between. Be inspired to create a lasting memory using your own found objects and images.

Tiaras - All that Glitters
Be a princess for the day. We shall be creating a simple tiara just for fun or for your special occasion - this is a great idea for a Hen Party!

SOMETHING MORE ....

By it's very nature a Day Workshop can only be a taster session. If you would like to do more then my Inspired to Stitch Course may be just the thing. A series of Workshops developing skills, aimed at those who enjoy creative work, who would like to be more experimental, but unsure where to begin....

A series of 'one day a week' Workshops over five weeks creating a course where we work through a variety of methods from inspiration and source material to commencing a piece of creative textile work.

Aimed at those unsure of how to progress without the security of a 'kit' or those not wishing to commit to a longer term course. We shall explore ways of recording thoughts and ideas in sketchbooks, expanding ideas into design using a variety of media, translating those designs to textile and stitch ideas and working samples, finally interpreting the design and working on a finished piece.

Course notes and a reading list will be supplied, together with material requirements.
