Hand Sewing Workshop

Slow down with hand stitching classes



3.5 hours Class size 1 to 7 guests    

  $65 - $80 (price varies across dates) (Afterpay & PayPal Pay in 4 available)

Step into a relaxing world of slow stitching, tactile materials, and meaningful craft traditions. These hand-sewing workshops are perfect for anyone who wants to reconnect with needle and thread, learn heritage techniques, and create beautiful stitched pieces at their own pace.
There are many sessions where you’ll explore a wide variety of hand-stitching styles drawn from global textile traditions, including:
  • Kantha Scarf – rhythmic running stitches used in South Asia to repurpose cloth into beautiful quilted layers.
  • Kawandi Mug Rug – a vibrant quilting technique from the Siddi community of India, stitched from the outside in with joyful scraps and colour.
  • Boro – the Japanese art of repairing and reinforcing textiles with visible stitches, texture, and character.
  • Sashiko – traditional Japanese stitch patterns used for strength, beauty, and meditative repetition.
  • Creative Mending – visible repairs that celebrate the life of your garments rather than hide the wear.
  • Little Stitch Pots – fabrics and trims, buttons and blings to decorate your stitched pots.
  • Fabric Bracelets – adorn your arms with one-of-a-kind jewellery.
  • Cross Stitch – a fun motif for the bathroom or best friend.
These workshops are intentionally gentle and beginner-friendly—just bring your curiosity and the desire to let your hands settle into a soothing rhythm.
What you’ll learn:
  • A variety of global hand-stitching methods and their cultural backgrounds.
  • How to build texture through stitch, patchwork layering, and repair techniques.
  • How to create usable, interesting pieces of art to gift or decorate yourself or your home.
  • How to mend clothing using visible or invisible and decorative techniques.
Who it’s for:
Anyone who loves slow, mindful craft, lovers of textile traditions, beginners wanting to learn slow stitching, or creatives looking for a peaceful, grounding workshop.
You’ll leave with new skills, a deeper appreciation for global stitching traditions, and a handmade piece that reflects your own creativity and story—one stitch at a time.
