What does this workshop cover
This is a lovely workshop to escape and create with. You will spend your day creating beautiful concertina booklets based on your special memories, a place, a person or people. This will become a
beautiful heirloom that you will treasure for ever.
To create your own personal storybook, you will need to bring photo and small items that you might like to stitch or stick into your booklet. You will be using words as part of your booklet so remember to bring names, dates, location names and maybe words to describe the person, place or event. Words that are meaningful to you. You may like to draw, colour with pastels, write text, stitch or stick your special items into your booklet e.g. sycamore seeds, moss, feathers, lace, tickets etc.
What’s included?
You will be provided with a variety of sustainable textiles, paper, pastels, threads, pens and crayons.
Who the workshop is suitable for
It can be as simple or as complex as you make it, so any ability can come along.
Who the workshop is run by
This workshop is taught by Jo Hague, Sustainable Textile Designer.
Jo is a sustainable textile designer from Lostwithiel, Cornwall. She designs and makes 3D sculptural wall and hanging installations for indoor and outdoor sheltered spaces within commercial and residential environments.
She repurposes discarded industrial plastic waste and at times will combine those plastics with 100% organic wool felt to transform into hand-crafted artworks. Unwanted plastic materials are sourced from local scaffolding companies, garden centres, supermarkets and coastal erosion projects, therefore, helping to protect our ecosystem and wildlife.
Other things you need to know
This lovely workshop will be set within the workshop space in the shop.
