Memory Slow StitchSpend a relaxing and creative afternoon exploring the beautiful art of memory slow stitching with textile artist Sara Lusvardi.
This special workshop combines photography, textiles and slow stitching to create a unique piece of artwork inspired by a photograph that holds meaning for you. Your chosen photograph will be incorporated into your textile piece, creating a beautiful and personal starting point for your design.
Sara will guide you through the process of layering your photograph with beautiful vintage fabrics, delicate lace, antique papers, buttons, beads and other carefully chosen textile treasures. You’ll explore colour, texture and composition before bringing everything together with simple hand stitching.
You’ll have exclusive access to Sara’s carefully curated collection of vintage textiles and embellishments, giving you the freedom to choose the materials that speak to you and create something that reflects your own memories and style.
Your photograph could be of a loved one, a favourite place, a much-loved pet, a special occasion or simply a moment that holds a special memory for you. Each finished piece will be completely unique and personal to its maker.
The workshop is suitable for complete beginners as well as those with previous sewing or textile experience. No previous knowledge is required, and Sara will guide you through the techniques throughout the afternoon.
We all work at different paces, so there’s no pressure to finish every stitch during the workshop. If you don’t quite complete your piece, you’ll be very welcome to take your remaining materials home and continue stitching at your own pace.
And, of course, homemade cake and hot drinks are included, giving you the perfect opportunity to slow down, unwind, share memories, get creative and enjoy good company in our friendly and inspiring setting.
Come along and turn a special photograph and treasured memory into something beautiful that you can keep forever.
