Slow down. Breathe. Stitch.
In this sacred practice of slow stitching, we embrace a mindful, intuitive approach to hand sewing—one that values presence over perfection, process over product. Inspired by the rhythms of Japanese Sashiko, Indian Kantha, and the wisdom of generations before us, this workshop, taught by artist Sue Keown, is an invitation to pause, reflect, and create with intention.
Using treasured fabrics, threads, and found materials, we will explore stitching as a form of meditation, storytelling, and self-discovery. Each stitch becomes a prayer, a rhythm, a way to ground ourselves in the present moment. Through guided exercises, you’ll learn:
The rhythm of slow stitching—a peaceful, intuitive process.
Simple, soulful stitches to create texture and pattern.
Translating emotions, memories, and nature’s whispers into fabric and thread.
The art of mending—both textiles and the self.
This is not about technique or perfection. It is about letting go, trusting your hands, and embracing the imperfections that make each piece uniquely yours. As we stitch, we connect—not just with the fabric, but with ourselves, with each other, and with something greater.
No sewing experience is needed—just an open heart. All materials will be provided. Come as you are, and leave with something stitched from your soul.
