Through hand embroidery, participants will create a small textile patch that expresses an act of care, recognition, or healing.Drawing connections between Javanese traditions of repair and healing and Welsh textile heritage, the workshop considers stitching as both a practical and symbolic act. Across Wales, textiles have long carried stories through quilting, wool production, mending, and domestic craft traditions. Similarly, embroidery can become a way of recording memory, honouring experience, and strengthening community connections.Participants will be encouraged to explore one of the project's central verbs (for example: Listen, Support, Respect, or Care) and translate this idea into stitched imagery, words, symbols, or patterns inspired by their own experiences.AimsParticipants will:Learn basic hand embroidery techniques.Explore Welsh textile traditions as forms of storytelling and community memory.Reflect on themes of care, healing, identity, and belonging.Share personal stories and experiences in a supportive environment.Contribute to a collective textile piece that represents diverse voices and experiences.
