139-Abstract Hand Embroidery Brooch

In this workshop, we'll explore abstract hand embroidery by making a small, wearable brooch. Rather than following a fixed design, you'll begin with intuitive mark-making and simple stitched gestures, building layers of thread to create depth and contrast as the piece gradually develops into a tactile object that can be worn. This is a process-led workshop that values curiosity over control. You'll be encouraged to respond to the materials and let the brooch evolve naturally through the making process. Imperfection and personal expression are welcomed. Suitable for all levels, this workshop is ideal for anyone interested in contemporary embroidery, slow making, or translating abstract stitched ideas into wearable form. All materials and full instructions will be provided in your workshop kit
