Outdoor Embroidery Workshop / Cycle Arts Festival 2025

🗓 Sunday, September 14 | ⏰ 11am - 1pm

📍 Start: Castle Semple Visitors Centre

Get inspired by the beauty around you—and turn it into art you can stitch!

In this relaxed outdoor workshop led by artist Ellie Mills (@ellietype), you’ll start by exploring the natural surroundings of Castle Semple.

Select an element from the environment that catches your eye: a leaf, a bird, a flower, a tree. Draw it on to a fabric of your choice using fabric pens.

We will then stitch your artwork by hand with colourful threads, and simple sewing techniques.

No experience needed—just curiosity and a love for nature.

🌿 Calm, creative, and completely beginner-friendly
