Apothecary Pocket

Lorna of Thread and Yarn is a sewist, knitter and natural dyer living in Stroud. She loves designing sewing patterns that are both beautiful and practical, often using up fabric scraps to create patchwork designs.
In this workshop you'll be hand-sewing one of Lorna's designs, the Apothecary Pocket. It's a tie-on pocket bag featuring an optional 'sawtooth star' quilt block. It's a fun and creative project!
This make was inspired by historic women's tie-on pockets, but they're just as useful today for storing knitting projects on the go, collecting garden flowers and herbs, or as a handy little bag.
Join us for a cosy day of hand-sewing, patchwork making and chats about historic pockets and more! Lorna will guide you through how to make the simple pocket shape, and the patchwork front. The bag will also be lined and has waist ties.
