Heritage Needlecraft Workshop Quilters' Embroidery and Art Nouveau

Look at hand embroidery on historical quilts and then hand quilt and embroider an Art Nouveau design on a small panel that can be incorporated into a cushion or framed for your home.

Learn how to hand quilt with running stitch and embellish with embroidery stitches and beads.

Taught by textile artist Helen Barnes.

Itinerary

'Travel through time and learn a new skill along the way'

Our hands-on Heritage Workshops teach transferable skills and the histories behind them in a full day (6 hrs) programme.

Topics range from Viking motif appliqué to '70s macramé, with Arts & Crafts tapestry, Regency embroidery, Liberty Florals, Durham quilting and more in-between.

The histories have a uniquely British flavour, with many rooted in Yorkshire and the North East. The skills are timeless: knitting, tapestry-work, quilting, cross stitch, appliqué, macramé, embroidery and beading.

We also have shorter Saturday Skills Classes to learn new skills or develop existing ones.
