Embroidery & Garment Upcycling at Fabrications
Use embroidery to upcycle!
This is a fun full-day embroidery workshop that will provide everything you need to start your adventure into the wild world of hand-embroidery.
The focus of this workshop is both on learning a selection of stitches ideal for upcycling garments, and techniques that will allow you to use embroidery as a tool to give your wardrobe a wonderful, magic, exciting new life.
Started in 2017 this full-day workshop is in partnership with Fabrications, in Broadway Market (London).
