Friday 28th February, 10am-2pm

HAND-TIED BOUQUET

Learn the fundamentals of floral design, including how to select, condition, and arrange fresh flowers.

Explore techniques for creating a balanced, aesthetically pleasing bouquet using seasonal blooms, greenery and accents.

Create your own hand-tied bouquet, with guidance on wrapping and finishing touches for a polished, gift-ready arrangement.

SLOW STITCHING

Discover the art of slow stitching, focusing on mindfulness and creativity. Learn basic sewing techniques using the Wattle&Loop 'Cosmos' Slow-Stitching Kit in a group setting in the flower gazebo overlooking the blooms. No experience necessary.

"Time spent slow-stitching is proven to relax and create a state of mindfulness. Enjoy the true sense of achievement that comes with producing your own unique and beautiful artwork." Wattle&Loop

WATTLE&LOOP COSMOS SLOW-STITCHING KIT

These vivid pink, daisy-like flowers have been known to symbolize balance and harmony for their crisp, even petals, but also ‘joy in love and life’ in the Victorian era! Flowering in gardens across the world for many months of the year, these striking blooms attract bees, butterflies and birds to the garden. A combination of Liberty London fabrics, vintage patterned pink/white fabrics are combined with plenty of specialty pieces to add texture and detail to your piece, like hand dyed sari silk, cheese cloth and vintage lace. The kit includes a lush, creamy linen coloured background to work on and all the threads and fabrics needed to complete these bright, cheery flowers.

Approx finished size: 6.5" x 8.5".

Kit includes:

Full Colour Pattern
Full Colour Instruction Booklet
Embroidery Needle
Needle Threader
Fabric Piece for Background
Liberty of London Fabric
New, Vintage & Reclaimed Fabrics
DMC Embroidery Threads

By combining the beautiful textile pieces with slow-stitching & appliqué you can make a truly beautiful textile collage of your own that is completely unique, as while they are similar, no two kits contain exactly the same pieces of fabric!

The above information on slow-stitching kits comes directly from the Wattle&Loop website. To find out more, go to:
