Stitchers - brain injury textiles club

Mondays 10:00-11:30

‘Stitchers’ is a weekly adult course for people living with brain injury full of friendly chat and the sharing of ideas. It is taught by fashion and textiles tutor Beth Morris and we take inspiration for textiles and surface pattern from art, our social environments and of course Insole Court. 

Come along and play with fabrics. We’ll deconstruct, re-construct, draw, paint, stitch, dye, rip, weave, embroider and embellish. This course will teach you how to challenge yourself and explore a world of colour, pattern and print. Some weeks we’ll work to a theme and others we’ll be inspired by artists and crafts people.

Let’s start a creative journey together, where you’ll make new friends and share fantastic stitch stories. Although all materials are provided, it’s a perfect opportunity to use up vintage fabrics and all those inspiring bits and pieces that have been in your sewing box for years! No previous experience necessary.

The group regularly takes part in exhibitions as well as plenty of slow stitching for enjoyment. Its a great way to start the week!!
