Craft Workshops and Tutoring

The latest trend now is to colour your fabric using Inktense pencils and then embroidering the design to bring it to life. If you enjoy colouring in, then you will love this craft. This technique is so simple to master (& very relaxing/mindful) and you do not have to be an artist to create masterpieces.

In this workshop, you will learn the tips and methods used to colour your designs and then finish off with simple embroidery stitches used in Redwork Needlework. The workshop design can be customised to certain times of the year/season.

This 8wk course is for those who have never crocheted before or those who need to brush up on forgotten skills. You will learn basic techniques on working in rows & rounds, the do’s and don’ts for both methods, plus how to confidently read a pattern, the correct way to join yarns and change colours, how to professionally finish, block and sew your crochet items. During the 8 weeks you will receive comprehensive handouts of everything we cover as well as the patterns that we will be working on so you can continue well after the course has been completed.

Over the 8 weeks you will be working on making a sampler blanket that will be treasured for many years from the squares that you will be crocheting during the course. A special blanket to show your journey of learning to crochet.

Have you always wanted to learn Needlework or maybe just brush up on long forgotten embroidery stitches? Needlework has been created for hundreds of years to embellish clothing or household linens, or simply as decorative pieces. It is a way to create ‘pictures’ with a needle and thread. As well as looking decorative, needlework is a brilliant way to relax and destress.

I teach a wide range of traditional Needlework from Redwork, Embroidery, Whitework, Blackwork, Slow Stitching or Candlewicking which can range from a one Day workshop to a series of weekly classes over a number of weeks.
