Join our textile making sessions

We are delighted to be inviting you to join us to explore your family or local stories through different sewing, printing & other textile techniques in Northampton. 

We are looking for 10-12 people in each town to join us for 6 weekly sessions, free to attend with all materials provided. At the end of the 6 sessions, there will be an opportunity to share what you have created at our Seedling pop-up installations (if you want to - no pressure to present or display anything!).

You will be welcomed, guided & supported by our multi-creative facilitators Tamsyn & Sandra as well as a creative introduction by our installation designer, Ruth. These sessions are super relaxed and no pressure, we welcome you to talk, craft, learn new skills, try out different ideas and generally have a nice time with our small group!
