Workshops for 2026

NEW!! Spring Embroidery Workshop at Sunnycroft

Saturday April 25th 2026

Embroidery workshops at Sunnycroft in Wellington.

Last year I was again lucky enough to lead a number of wonderful workshops at Sunnycroft National Trust property in Wellington, Shropshire - as well as my usual autumn workshops,

this year, for the first time,

I will also be leading a workshop on :

  • Saturday 25th April

After the success of previous years I will again be offering the opportunity to join this workshop as a 'Returning Stitcher' - If you have attended a workshop with me in the past and not finished your kit - perhaps you haven't had time, you've forgotten how to work the stitches or you just need more help then you can attend any of my Sunnycroft workshops as a 'Returning Stitcher'.

Bring your unfinished kit and enjoy a relaxing day of embroidery in the peaceful setting of Sunnycroft - you'll still enjoy a delicious lunch, expert tuition and use of equipment such as scissors and hoops.

Autumn Workshop dates TBC.

(Please check back for the autumn dates.)
