About the eventGrimbarians: Creative Stitch - Free-motion Machine Embroidery Workshop
Get ready to unleash your creativity at our Grimbarians Free-motion Machine Embroidery Workshop on May 17th!
Creative Stitch is an exciting creative workshop by Thread and Press CIC. Learn how to use paint and embroidery together to create beautiful artwork. A lovely workshop for anyone interested in learning to combine art and textiles processes together.In this session, you will be guided in how to use simple layers of water-based paint into primed fabric to create a simple painted image. No artistic experience required, we will provide structured examples with step-by-step instructions for those who require them, or you can experiment and work from your own image.
You will be guided and supported throughout the whole process. Once you have created a base layer, you will learn how to set up and use a sewing machine (all sewing machines are provided) in 'free-motion' mode so that you can 'draw' with the sewing machine. It doesn't matter if you have never used a sewing machine before, we will show you how to do everything that you need. Choose from an array of thread colours and build up your artwork. You can either work on one of our structured examples or use your own creativity to develop your own ideas.
Holly is a friendly and qualified textiles teacher with years of experience teaching this technique. All materials and equipment are provided. Images to work from can be provided or you can choose to bring your own images to choose from (printed onto paper no bigger than 7 inch diameter).
Please bring your own lunch. Please note, this venue is stairs access only.
