Seasonal sewing with Tabita Thompson - afternoon poinsettia flower workshop

  • Abney Park Trust Stoke Newington High Street London, England, N16 0LH United Kingdom (map)

Join Tabita Thompson to explore hand sewing techniques. This workshop is a celebration of poinsettias a beautiful winter plant.

We will be making a hand stitched felt poinsettia which can be used for a decoration, brooch or given as a gift. 

By making our own poinsettia, we will have a special decoration that can be used annually. This will help to prevent unnecessary landfill during the festive season.

All materials will be supplied, however feel free to bring in any needles or thimbles that is comfortable for your use.

This workshop is for adults of all ages. Tabita is an experienced workshop leader specialising in creative sewing techniques including embroidery, patchwork, and sashiko.
