Join artist Louise Meuwissen for a textile workshop celebrating personal expression, sustainable fashion, and making by hand.

Create embroidered sew-on patches using up-cycled materials to repair and personalise clothing in your wardrobe. You’ll be guided through developing a design, translating it to textiles, and learning sewn embellishment techniques to transform tired garments into wearable works of art.

Suitable for beginners and experienced sewers alike, this workshop invites participants to refresh and relove the clothes they already own while reducing textile waste.

All materials provided. 

Participants are welcome to bring along the garments they may wish to repair but not required.

This is an Adults only workshop.
