Seasonal Textiles with Peace&Craft at Westonbirt Arboretum

Enjoy a peaceful morning with a small group of fellow stitcher crafters and learn to look at your textile scraps differently in these low-pressure scrapcrafting sessions. You’ll enjoy an inspirational collection of remnant materials from Anna’s 'scraps buffet' - textiles, papers, haberdashery, fibres, wire, lace... reclaimed, vintage, luxe, surprising... always beautiful and always interesting.

Follow your host Anna’s demonstrations and simple steered tutorials to make unique, handstitched textile decorations in your chosen colours and styles.

Craft or sewing experience is not essential but very welcome. Whether you've never put thread to needle, or are a skilled crafter already, this is a no-rules creativity that focuses as much on the process and experience as the results.

What to bring

Includes all materials, guidance & tuition, complimentary day entry to the arboretum, tea/coffee & cake. Own pre-prepared light snacks, water bottles and/or other drinks are welcome.

Participants are welcome to bring their own sewing kit, needles, fabric scissors/thread scissors and/or favourite special fabric scraps. Alternatively, shared tools & plenty of materials will be available to use on the day.
