Not at all! This workshop is suitable for complete beginners. You'll learn how to use the sewing machine for free-motion embroidery step by step, with guidance and personal support throughout the session.
All the essentials are provided, including portable sewing machines, fabrics and threads. You don't need to bring any sewing supplies to take part.
Bring an image, photograph or idea you'd love to turn into a textile artwork. It could be a favourite landscape, a special place, a view from Porto or a photo of someone you love. Your inspiration can be as simple or personal as you like.
Yes! By the end of the three-hour workshop, you'll have created your own unique textile piece using free-motion machine embroidery. It's a handmade artwork you can keep, display or give as a meaningful gift.
Absolutely! It's a lovely way to enjoy a creative evening after work, spend a weekend doing something different or share a fun experience with friends. Groups are kept small so everyone receives plenty of individual attention and support.
