2 Day Workshop
Dates: 22nd & 23rd of February 2025
Time: 9.00am - 4.00pm on Saturday / 9.00am- 3.30pm on Sunday
What to Bring:
All materials are supplied - please just bring an apron.
Included: Morning tea, lunch, nibbles with gin and tonic around the firepit on Saturday night.
Join Cath from the Happenstore for a wonderful two days at Essington Park.
After a delicious morning tea and welcome from Simmone, join Cath in our woolshed workshop space to learn the magic and mystery of indigo and textile painting florals onto linen, followed with stitching.
Cath will talk a little about her journey with textiles and design and then we will get stuck in to a fun and creative day.
All materials are supplied so you don’t have to worry about a thing, just show up and have fun!
We will be making a cushion cover that is hand painted and then embroidered onto. Covering a few textile mediums, indigo and textile paint, Cath will show you how to successfully develop your ideas and apply them to the linen. We will be looking at a botanical collection of flowers and foliage to draw inspiration from.
We will end our wonderful day with a gin and tonic around our fire pit.
The next stage is the embroidery … you will be given a hand printed sampler to work into, alongside your painted piece. We will discover and rediscover various stitches and other fun and interesting techniques whilst sitting by the fire.
This wil be a truly wonderful 2 days of discovery and making and chatting and laughing… can’t wait to see you!
