Blooming Grid with Pauline Franklyn 4th August 10am til 4pm

Join me on Sunday for a wonderful day of creating.

Blooming Grid

Sometimes it’s hard to know where to begin with stitching. This little grid is a wonderful way to have a play with different stitches, textures and colour.

Come along, sit down, take in the surroundings and enjoy learning some new stitches, including  French knots, chain stitch, long and short stitch and Turkey work. If you are an experienced stitcher, I have some other stitches you can try too.

Hand dyed yarns are so beautiful to stitch with, they are very forgiving and also provide inspiration for further colour choices in your piece. Every stitch can be a surprise as colours appear and your squares take shape. It feels a little like magic! 

Many of the more experienced stitchers who have come to my workshop can’t believe how uninhibited it is to stitch with these beautiful yarns and although they know the actual stitches, combining them in different ways is very fulfilling and they often come up with the most amazing combinations. 

Enjoy the pleasure and freedom of stitching while working with quality materials and the deep experience of colour and ease of wool yarn.

This workshop will get you started on a very fun, creative and achievable slow stitch project for all levels.I will provide an assortment of beautiful hand dyed yarn at the workshop and you can take home your work in its hoop some more yarn to continue on your own.
