Broadgreen House, The Le Cren Room, 276 Nayland Road, Stoke,

Be inspired by native flora and create a unique handstitched textile collage with printing and painting techniques incorporated.

This two-day workshop is designed to explore your creativity to create a hand-stitched textile collage artwork(s). Sally is an experienced painter and textile artist who enjoys passing on her knowledge to others. Using recycled and repurposed fabrics, along with basic print-making techniques, such as stencils and Gelli prints, you will create unique fabrics to incorporate into your own work. Taking inspiration from native NZ plants, Sally will guide you along the process from designing your collage to incorporating various stitching techniques using embroidery cottons.

The workshop is suitable for everyone from experienced textile artists to beginners.

Sally currently has work at the Suter Gallery (a painting).
