About

In these free workshops, learn how to transform fabric scraps into masterpieces with Emily Fraser. Discover the art of creating stunning abstract or landscape pieces using found fibres in your favourite colours. With second-hand wool, scarves, ties, reclaimed sari silk, thread and roving – you can make magic! In this short introductory workshop, you'll have access to all the materials needed.

You can join us for one session or register for all three days below!

This workshop is open to everyone over the age of 5, though an adult should accompany those under 10.

All materials are provided, and you can also purchase a kit to take home and continue your creative journey. Join us and explore a new medium!

Emily has been working in this medium and teaching others for the past 9 years and loves to see students transform discarded fibres into works of art.

Check out some of her work on Instagram @fibreandfotos.
