The Fabric of Home: Mindful Textile Art with Rebekah Jonhston
Join Nottingham based textile artist Rebekah Jonhston for a ‘mindful’ quilt-making workshop exploring the theme of home through textile art. Learn and practise different slow stitch techniques while making your own mini quilt that reflects your experiences of housing and what ‘home’ means to you. Rebekah’s work emphasizes the therapeutic and calming effects of the mindful act of stitching, resulting in pieces that offer both visual and emotional comfort.
All and Sundry Art Club-Make a Slow Stitch bookmark or keyring
Join Rebekah Johnston on Saturday, August 3rd, for a relaxed and informal session to create a slow-stitched bookmark or keyring from a selection of her plant-dyed fabric remnants. No booking required, just drop in. Participants are welcome to take fabrics and threads home to complete their creations.
Zero Waste Applique Workshop
Join Rebekah in Ruddington’s historical Framework Knitters Museum to learn her straightforward method for needle turn applique. You'll create a botanical-inspired appliqued square from a selection of Rebekah’s plant dyed fabrics. Perfect for use in patchwork projects or stand-alone pieces like mini quilts or place mats.
Mindful Slow Stitch Workshop
Join me in the beautiful EverWild Studio to learn the art of slow stitch, a mindful practice that's both soothing and creative. Using plant-dyed fabrics from my collection, you'll master the technique of attaching fabric scraps to a base cloth with a simple running stitch. Begin your project in class and finish it at home. You can choose to leave it as is or turn it into a simple wall hanging.
