Always wanted to try embroidery? This one-day workshop offers an introduction to traditional whitework embroidery, ideal for beginners! Get hands-on with the basic stitches used for naturalistic floral motifs, popular in the mid-late 1800s to decorate household furnishings. 

This one-day practical workshop will offer an opportunity to learn some of the basic stitches and how to mark a pattern on cloth.

All workshop materials will be provided and there will be a chance to study original pieces from the museum’s collection of textiles. Suitable for beginners or those with some basic stitching experience.
