About this Event
Join us at Make:Shed for our Individual Patch Making workshop- the second of three workshops, to create a collaborative stitched art work
In this session, we're building on the stitching skills from the previous session (or utilising your existing stitching skills), and we’ll begin the design and creation of the individual patches which will combine to form a shared art work.
You’ll be introduced to methods for joining patchwork pieces as well as learning about the context of patchwork.
No previous experience necessary, all tools and materials will be provided.
This workshop is part of a group of 3 - you’ll get the most from it if you come along to all 3 sessions.
This workshop is the second of three in our Community Art Creation series -you’ll get the most from it if you come along to all 3 sessions.
