Join mixed media artist Katy, founder of She Makes Things, for a fun evening workshop hand-stitching your very own one-of-a-kind Christmas cards at Something Good Workshops in Deptford, South East London.
Get creative alongside like-minded people and into the festive spirit.
No experience necessary; working freely and intuitively is encouraged. Take-home "how-to" manuals relieve any pressure to finish your creation in the session, allowing you to relax and enjoy the slow craft of paper and stitch and the company of others.
This workshop demonstrates how to create paper embroidery from geometric designs, where you can select and string together your chosen colours, weaving through the paper, creating complex shapes and turning the humble material into a keepsake which can be framed and admired or sent to a loved one.
Take-home “mini self-care” toolkits, with all the essentials for the craft, will be available to purchase on the evening.
A chance to chat, connect, and create. No experience necessary.

Hi, we’re Emily and Jess, the creative minds behind Something Good Workshops!
Our journey began in 2019 when Emily launched Something Good Workshops (originally known as MADEptford) as a way to spread crafty joy and raise funds for running the London Marathon. What started as a one-time idea quickly grew into a passion for bringing people together through creativity. Since then, we’ve hosted a wide variety of workshops, from arm knitting to body casting, in all kinds of spaces - corporate offices, cosy pubs, pop-up shops, and even people’s homes.
After taking a short break, we’re back with fresh energy and an exciting new partnership. Jess has joined the team, and together, we’re on a mission to spark joy and empower people to explore their creativity in relaxing, welcoming spaces. We believe there’s something magical about slowing down, working with your hands, and leaving with something you’ve made yourself - whether it’s a chunky knit blanket, a personal shrine, or a collage bursting with personality.
What makes us unique? We’re all about creating an environment where people feel at ease, whether they’re a total beginner or a seasoned maker. Over the years, we’ve held workshops in so many different settings, and one thing always stands out: the joy people feel when they realize just how creative they can be.
We’re not just here to teach a craft - we’re here to help you unwind, have fun, and leave with a tangible reminder that you’re capable of making something good.
We can’t wait to meet you at a workshop soon!
