Join me for an evening of social stitching. Embroider your own cap with traditional ‘blackwork’ patterns.

Design your own custom cap using an embroidery technique made popular by the Tudors! Blackwork embroidery uses simple stitches to create beautifully intricate geometric patterns. Working from templates, we will go step-by-step to stitch our caps. You can even customise your colour and motifs to suit your style.

Whether you’re new to stitching or an experienced maker, this workshop will guide you through each stage in a fun, relaxed setting. No previous experience needed, and all tools and materials provided. Just bring yourself and your creativity!
