Open day: hand stitch

Saturday 2nd March 2024, 12-2pm (public, drop-in)

Join Penny and Cassian at Machspace for our Hand Stitch Open Day!

Bring your own project or choose from:

  • Fun cross stitch patterns and kits 
  • Learn ‘painting with thread’ using long-and-short stitch
  • Make an embroidered rose
  • Bring your mending project and create a decorative mend
  • Use our interaction badges – choose to craft quietly or stitch ‘n’ socialise

Here’s a few of the cross-stitch kits we’ve bought to share, pay-what-you-feel:

Some of them have beads too!

Plus we have a whole selection of embroidery hoops to go with them, so you can join in even if you’re a complete beginner. We also now have one of those giant magnifying glasses with LEDs on it, which clamps onto the table, like so:

As it’s an open day, Machspace will be open to the public, and we invite you to read our open day rules before attending.

We look forward to seeing you there! 🙂
