Join this Bargello needlepoint workshop in Butlers at Kirkstall Forge and discover an incredibly addictive vintage craft technique. This hands-on session is perfect for first-timers, as the Bargello technique is easy to do. You'll quickly master Bargello stitches and learn how to read patterns under the guidance of your encouraging mentor.
In this low-pressure workshop, you'll be making hand-stitched accessories, giving you the chance to walk away with something you'll want to show off. Your handmade keepsakes can include:
  • Earrings
  • Necklaces
  • Keyrings
  • Bookmarks
  • And more!
The workshop is easy to get to, as it's located at Kirkstall Forge, which has a train station on-site. Should you need a parking space, just let your mentor know, and they can get one arranged for you. You're welcome to bring your own drinks and snacks to enjoy while you switch off and get top Bargello tips!
You'll finish the session with a feeling of creative inspiration and some gorgeous handmade accessories to wear and gift.

Travelling workshops run by Kim Searle.
All my workshops are based on encouraging sustainability, building community and supporting attendees well-being. I am passionate about ensuring craft sessions are accessible to all, providing discounts on most courses for people on low/no incomes, seeking out venues that are wheelchair accessible and ensuring that workshops are calming with more of an emphasis on enjoyment and new skills over perfection.
I also run workshops at festivals including Glastonbury, Green Man, End of the Road, Underneath the Stars, Deershed, Wychwood Cornbury, Greenbelt, Just So, Beacons, FarmFest, BeatHerder and more!
I studied BA (Hons) Textile Crafts at the University of Huddersfield, specialising in textile printing. I’ve also studied weaving, felting, bookbinding, dark room photography and fine art printing at L'Ecole des Beaux Artes at Besancon, The Academy of Design in Kuopio and Leeds University, as well as studying a range of creative techniques on a foundation course at UcCA Canterbury.
