Stitch- that slow movement of thread and needle
Course Overview
Explore the many possibilities of stitching…
Explore the many possibilities of stitching – decorative embroidery, mending and upcycling clothing and household items, incorporating beads, buttons and other embellishments.
The Wednesday group at Timeless Textiles is currently working on a creative project, “Out of the Wood” – creating beautiful art works combining textile and fibre with recycled wood, supporting a community program , “Our Backyard” . Our Backyard is a unique program assisting the homeless by offering a safe parking place for those sleeping in their cars and other connections to facilitate living in a car to a more permanent residence.
To add another dimension to this wonderful weekly community, we are introducing the opportunity to learn and explore a new stitch or “stitch” technique each month. The last Wednesday of the month will be our learning day when an artist tutor will facilitate an informal workshop introducing a stitch/technique. On other Wednesdays, participants may continue to explore that stitch or technique with guidance and come along, have a cuppa and stitch their own projects and enjoy the company of the Wednesday group.
