FAQs (6)
Do I need to know how to sew?
Absolutely not! The evening is about having some creative fun and we will take everything step-by-step.
What is the atmosphere like?
The sessions are very social and relaxed. Depending on the venue, they are sometimes quite lively.
Will I be able to finish in 2.5 hours?
The sessions are designed to provide the enjoyment of hand-stitching a finished item in a short session. I take care to set up each persons kit in advance - needles threaded and knots tied - so we waste minimal time faffing and maximum time with the fun part!
What if I need more time?
Many people are able to finish in the time allocated, but participants are welcome to take home any materials necessary to complete the piece if they prefer to take things slowly.
What is accessibilty like at your venues?
All venues have step-free access, but access to parking and toilets is dependent on the venue. At Northstowe it is helpful to know of any wheelchair users in advance, as we can make adjustemnts to the seating. If you have any questions about accessibility please don't hesitate to get in touch.
Can you provide written instructions?
Absolutely. Just let me know in advance if you would like a set of written instructions printed.

- Beadwork – attaching beads to fabric as decoration – dates back thousands of years. There are early examples from ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, and Native American cultures. Glass seed beads were developed by the Romans and mechanised in Bohemia (now the Czech Republic) in the 19th century, when beadwork embroidery became popular for decorating garments and accessories.
- Goldwork – using precious metal threads and wires to decorate cloth – has also been around for thousands of years and is thought to have originated in China. Modern European goldwork materials and techniques date to the Middle Ages, when they were mainly used to decorate religious garments and fabrics.

Your teacher
I am a textile enthusiast with over 20 years experience working with a wide range of textile arts. I am particularly interested in historical techniques and love learning about their origins and social contexts. I enjoy taking inspiration from traditional textiles and applying 'old' techniques to my own modern designs.Originally trained as a biologist, I am constantly inspired the natural world and aim to make my artistic practice as sustainable as possible, using mostly natural and upcycled materials.I truly believe that textiles are a fundamental part of human culture and experience - they are EVERYWHERE. So much so that we often forget about them, dismiss them and undervalue them. They are thought of as ‘domestic’, ‘feminine’ and ‘old-fashioned’. I would love to change this image! To show that textiles are for everyone. Absolutely anyone can sew, knit, crochet, weave, spin, dye. And the work that they produce can be just as awe-inspiring, thought-provoking and beautiful as any other medium. Not to mention the benefits for mental health and wellbeing!
