Thread Your Style: A Clothing Embroidery Workshop with Artist Lina Castro
Looking to refresh your wardrobe in a creative, sustainable way? Join us for Thread Your Style, a one-day embroidery workshop led by renowned textile artist Lina Castro. In this workshop you’ll learn how to breathe new life into your clothes using timeless embroidery stitches in a contemporary artistic way.
You can be a complete beginner or just looking to explore new skills. This workshop is the perfect introduction to embroidery. Lina will guide you step-by-step through a variety of essential stitches and creative applications, showing you how to add colour, texture, and personal pizzazz to your garments.
Bring along a piece of clothing you love – a plain t-shirt, denim jacket, jumper, cap or anything else. We will help you transform it into a unique, wearable piece of art. By the end of the session, you’ll have a beautifully embroidered item to take home, along with the skills and confidence to continue stitching your style into other pieces.
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN IN THIS WORKSHOP:
- Fundamental hand embroidery stitches and how to apply them to different fabrics
- Design ideas
- Layout techniques to personalise garments
- Tips on choosing thread, transferring designs, and finishing your work
