# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Drawing with Stitch: Natural Dyeing and Hand Embroidery
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 13 Aug, 2026 at 10:00 am
- **Event Description**: Join textiles artist Sophie Bowen for a two-day workshop exploring embroidery as a form of drawing, using stitch to create line, rhythm and movement across the surface. 

Tutor: Sophie Bowen
Date & Time: Thursday 13th and Friday 14th August, 10am - 4pm
Venue: Brush Studio, New Brewery Arts
PRICE: £180.00 (£0.00 VAT)  

Working with seasonal dye plants, you will begin by dyeing a selection of yarns and threads, developing a subtle palette that reflects the qualities of plant-based colour. Simple drawing exercises will be used to gather marks and visual ideas, encouraging an intuitive and observational approach to making.

These marks will then be translated into stitch, using simple techniques to build line, rhythm and texture. Working on paper, you will explore its unique qualities as a surface, building layered compositions through repeated stitches, with the option to incorporate natural dye inks. By varying spacing, direction and density, stitch becomes a way of drawing, allowing forms to emerge gradually through the process.

Across the two days, you will develop a small stitched piece on paper, guided by your own marks and responses. The workshop encourages a slower, more reflective way of working, offering space to experiment, build confidence and explore the relationship between drawing, natural dye and hand embroidery.

You will leave this workshop with the skills of working with natural dyes to develop a considered colour palette for stitch on paper. You will have experienced a more open and exploratory way of working, having gained confidence in developing your own ideas through making.
