Description
Bargello is a vintage needlepoint technique originating in Italy. It uses long stitches and has a great vintage look to it! It's easy to do and incredibly addictive. In this session, we'll be making hand-stitched accessories, including earrings, necklaces, keyrings, bookmarks, and more! Master Bargello stitches, learn how to read patterns, and get top Bargello tips. This workshop will take place in Butlers at Kirkstall Forge. There's a train station on site and Kirkstall Forge wants to encourage sustainability, but if you'd like a parking space let me know and we can get one arranged. Sadly the cafe will not be open, but you’re welcome to bring your own drinks and snacks.

Travelling workshops run by Kim Searle (BA Hons Textile Crafts). Sessions are based on encouraging sustainability - mostly working across West Yorkshire, South Devon, Dorset and Hampshire and the surrounding areas, but willing to travel. Workshops are run with a relaxed, informal and inclusive atmosphere, letting people go at their own pace. Materials, guidance and technical assistance are provided but everyone is encouraged to push their own creativity, and most of all have a good time!
