Wildflower Embroidery Experience - Ely

An evening of social stitching inspired by local wildflowers.

Sip and Stitch is a fun and relaxed social stitching session, perfect for a night out with friends. Sessions are designed to be beginner friendly (no sewing experience required!) and everything you need is provided. Sessions are run by experienced textile artist Steph Norwood, who will take you through the month's activity step-by-step.

Shake off the winter cold with a fun evening stitching wildflowers! Make your own handstitched cotton tote bag using just three basic stitches. Inspired by the beautiful, yet hardy, wildflowers I have found along the Cambridgeshire Guided Busway, this workshop is the perfect way to welcome in spring.

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 is needed, and all materials are provided, along with a glass of Prosecco on arrival. Just bring yourself and your creativity!​
