Slow Stitches & Stories

🌀Slow Stitches & Stories

Gather your treasures and your tales.

Got a stash of favourite fabrics, trims, buttons and threads you’ve been saving for “something special”? This is it!

Every second Tuesday night, we’ll gather for a cosy evening of slow stitching, storytelling, and creative play.

In this ongoing workshop series, we’ll embroider our stories into fabric pages, eventually binding them into a beautiful, hand-stitched book that holds both our stitches and our stories. Along the way, you’ll explore:

🎨 Fabric dyeing and painting techniques

🪡 Learn new stitches and creative embellishments

💬 Share stories and laughter with kindred makers

🧵The mindful, meditative rhythm of slow stitching

This is not about perfection — it’s about connection, creativity, and the beauty of taking time.

So dust off that button jar, gather your favourite bits and bobs, and come stitch your story with us!
