Slow down learning a time-honoured craft to stitch a plant portrait for your wall.
This beginner-friendly workshop will go through five basic stitches using reclaimed floral fabric as our template to stitch into.
You'll get to take a small kit to keep you going at home, including an embroidery hoop that's ready to hang when you've finished stitching your floral creation.
Suitable for participants aged +10.
