About
Join embroidery artist Jessica Grady for a colourful and creative workshop at Lakeside Creative Arts Centre, exploring floral designs using embellishments and hand stitch.
You will be working on your own fantasy floral artwork design using Jessica’s samples and ideas to inspire you. Jessica will show you how you can utilise a range of mixed media materials to create your floral design including recycled sequins, painted washers and sponges, as well as more traditional beads, buttons and embellishments. All these elements will be added to your textile background with simple hand embroidery stitches, which will also add some decoration and pattern to your design.
Techniques explored within the workshop include: folded and pleated sequin petals, beaded flower stamens, twisted wire vines and folded flower buds. Everyone will create their own unique fantasy floral design, and Jessica will provide lots of 1:1 assistance, inspiration and ideas to help you create your own textile artwork.
This workshop is suitable for all abilities, whether you are a complete beginner to stitch, or someone who would like to explore techniques and try something new!
Maximum number of participants is 12.
