Workshops
Extraordinary embroidery
Learn the classic skill of embroidery – with a contemporary twist! You’ll create a set of tea towels or pillow cases using Sublime Stitching’s oh-so modern pattern designs, with motifs ranging from sushi, mermaids and tikki masks to garden gloves, handbags and high heels!
We’ll show you how to transfer images onto fabric, teach you running stitch, satin stitch and French knots, then get embroidering together! All materials provided, including your choice of a Sublime Stitching reusable pattern pack, a tea towel or pair of pillow cases, plus thread, hoops, and needles. Printed instructions also provided to take home.

Additional information
Catherine Hirst learned to crochet as a little girl from her grandmother. She quickly added knitting and embroidery to her repertoire and has been creating handmade clothing and accessories ever since. ‘I always have half a dozen projects on the go, because I get so excited to try a new pattern or design idea,’ says Catherine. ‘I’m inspired by so many things in London: from the skirt of a woman who passes me on the street, to the architecture of the old buildings.’ Catherine has taught knitting, crochet, and embroidery for more than a decade to groups and individuals in Britain, the United States, and France.
