Create a bold, characterful rooster using fabric, stitch and colour.

Join us for a relaxed and creative sewing workshop where you’ll learn how to combine appliqué with freehand machine embroidery to make a striking rooster design. This workshop is suitable for confident beginners through to more experienced stitchers who want to loosen up their machine embroidery and explore texture and line.


What You’ll Learn

  • How to build a design using raw‑edge appliqué
  • Techniques for freehand (free‑motion) machine embroidery
  • Using stitch direction and density to add texture and movement
  • Tips for colour choice and layering fabrics
  • How to finish your piece ready for framing, a cushion front or wall hanging

What You’ll Make

You’ll create a stitched rooster panel, full of personality, using layered fabrics and expressive machine stitching. Each piece will be completely individual.


What to Bring

  • Just yourself!

Skill Level

  • You should be comfortable using a sewing machine.
  • No previous freehand embroidery experience needed.
 

Why You’ll Love This Workshop

  • Friendly, supportive atmosphere.
  • Learn techniques you can reuse for many projects.
  • Perfect for loosening up your stitching style.
  • Go home with a finished piece and new confidence.

If you would like a refresher on using a sewing machine, we suggest doing our Beginners Guide to Sewing Machine workshop before this workshop. 

This workshop takes place in our Sewing School. 

We have brand new Janome sewing machines for you to use, plus all the other tools, equipment and sewing 'notions'.

Refreshments will be provided throughout the workshop.

We have sewing machines you can use, but if you prefer to bring your own you are very welcome to.

8th July 2026 5.30-8.30pm £45

This workshop takes place upstairs in our new sewing school and I'm afraid we do not have a lift.  We do have a toilet and refreshment station upstairs.
