Stitch Art from the Heart: Discover Free-Motion Embroidery!

Turn your child’s artwork into a treasured keepsake with free-motion embroidery.

In this special workshop at The Make Spot, you’ll learn how to transform a child’s drawing into a beautiful embroidered piece creating a heartfelt gift and a wonderful way to preserve their creativity forever.

Free-motion embroidery has been one of my favourite techniques for over 25 years, and creating bespoke stitched pieces from children’s artwork was one of my very first sewing ventures! It’s a joyful, mindful process that turns simple drawings into meaningful textile art.

All equipment and materials are provided. Just bring along your chosen child’s drawing, (or a copy) ideally A4 size and in a clear line-drawing style, plus a packed lunch.

Join us to create something a truly personal stitched memory to treasure for years to come.
