Heart Garland Craft Class

Slow down and settle into the cozy rhythm of the season with our Fall Meditative Stitching Heart Garland class—an invitation to create from the heart, with your hands.

In this calming, fall-inspired workshop, we’ll craft a garland made of heart-shaped pieces using upcycled fabric. Each heart is a small act of mindfulness—stitched with intention, reflecting the warmth and beauty of autumn.

We’ll explore a meditative stitching technique, using simple, repetitive hand-sewing to slow the mind and engage the senses. There’s no rush and no pressure—just the quiet rhythm of needle and thread, the texture of repurposed materials, and the joy of creating in a supportive space.

Guests can expect to complete at least 5 hearts during the session, or bring home enough materials to finish 5 at their own pace. When strung together, your hearts become a meaningful garland—perfect for home decor, seasonal gifting, or simply as a reminder to breathe and be present.
