Using printmaking techniques, create patches to sew or attach to your favourite clothes, bags or textiles, giving something old a new story

Prepare for the turning of the wheel into the colder months and get creative with autumn's abundance as you make your own fabric patches.

You'll design your own stamps from soft printing foam, then use them to print patterns and illustrations on fabric, taking inspiration from the folklore and symbols of Mabon and the harvest.

Create patches to sew or attach to your favourite clothes, bags or textiles, giving something old a new story and preparing for the inevitable day when your favourite jumper gets a hole in it!

This workshop is part of our day event of workshops - Mabon: A Day of Making & Magic

Gather with us as we celebrate Mabon - the Autumn Equinox - a time of harvest, gratitude, balance and turning inward as the days begin to grow darker. This will be a day of making, reflecting and connecting with the season through three creative

workshops.

We will start of by creating our own journals (or sketchbooks), and reflect on the

wisdom of Mabon through prompts, then we will explore the ancient tradition of lost-wax

jewellery making, creating our own talismans, and finally we will design unique fabric

patches inspired by the colours, symbols and abundance of Mabon and autumn.

Whether you join us for the whole day or one or two workshops, we look forward to creating with you!
