What you'll do
Learn everything you need to know about slow stitching in this relaxing Melbourne workshop with Kahrina Designs.
Slow stitching is all about stepping in to slow. It allows you to slow down in a hectic world and take pleasure in simple stitches and simple processes.
This workshop mixes the principals of eco craft with the ancient tradition of slow stitching to create a beautiful pouch. See how to slow down and experience more joy in your craft by trying simple techniques based on traditional practice, reusing and reinventing materials with limited equipment.
Enjoy the sense of achievement that comes with producing your own unique and beautiful patchwork pouch. It’s a great way to use up smaller scraps of fabric and make a cute useful item for yourself or as a gift.
What will we cover?
Slow stitching centres around the “make do and mend” and “waste not, want not” ethos of yesteryear. It's about embracing the timeworn nature of our materials, and the individuality of our stitching methods. After some needle and thread basics, you will learn to use simple stitches to create.
There is no right or wrong way to approach your slow stitch project. Relax and unwind whilst experiencing the joy and gratification of being immersed in mindful creativity, hand stitching a personalised work of art. Gain the well-being benefits of mindful creating and crafting.
Come, pick up a needle and thread and lose yourself in this meditative process where simplicity is key!
Knowledge required
This class is suitable for both beginners and more experienced sewers.
What you'll get
You will learn simple stitch techniques for connecting pieces to a base cloth using the colours and patterns of the cloth and choice of thread to create your own individual pouch.
What to bring
