Easy Sundays: Sea Story Quilting With Beth Cross is scheduled for 4 October 2026 at the Scottish Storytelling Centre in Edinburgh. This community project invites participants to stitch children's drawings into a quilt, fostering storytelling and creativity. No prior experience is required.
Our lives are stitched with stories. Each of us imagines a story in our own unique way. None more so than children. This project by storyteller Beth Cross provides a quiet informal space for stitching into life children's drawings of stories imprinted on a quilt. Come for the chat and stories, add some stitches, no experience or prior skill required. The quilt currently being worked bears drawings that children of Tiree drew from a session of sea stories. The illustrated quilts provide a place for further children to sit for story sessions adding their own contributions to this living ever evolving record of how stories thread through our lives. This event is part of Easy Sundays, a fortnightly session of stories, music, community and friendship, with a variety of activities for all to enjoy. Supported by TRACS (Traditional Arts and Culture Scotland) and the Scottish Storytelling Centre to create a warm and welcoming space for the community.
