Slow Stitching with Lisa Mattock




Slow Stitching with Lisa Mattock 
April 6th

Price: $115.00, including starter pack

Another acclaimed Australian creator, Lisa Mattock, will be joining us for a workshop on her specialty, Slow Stitching. Lisa will teach the foundations of several stitches and explore the techniques involved in creating beautiful pieces from treasured finds. This class will put an emphasis on repurposing old fabrics in a contemporary, unique way.

If you find you often feel stressed in the crafting process, this class is for you. Lisa embraces the idea of slowing down, recognizing the practical beauty of reclaiming, reusing and repurposing. Her class will draw inspiration from the arts of SashikoBoro, and Kantha, which involve decorative stitching, mending, and embroidery.

Students will walk away with a unique panel and a game plan to complete it - as a quilt block, pillow cushion, wall hanging, or incorporated into a tote or other project!  Lots of flexibility to create something artistic and special.   

Starter packs will feature all the supplies needed to get working, including a selection of vintage fabrics, embellishments and threads foraged by Lisa.  Give us a call at the shop (360 715 1629) or stop by soon to register (the roads are mostly clear of snow downtown!), space is limited.
