Found one of the cutest rooms that Bristol has! The best news is that on Wednesday 12th, next week, we're doing a workshop here!

🌟 Social stitching: pouches at The Pump House 🌟

Come and enjoy a guided session, socialise and make a pouch! Bring your bestie or that friend you wanna see before summer ends!

A workshop welcoming all community members; children under the age of 12 must be accompanied by an adult.

We will learn basics of stitching and use upcyled fabric, cotton thread and buttons to get that groove on. All materials are provided, and guidance is at every step of this process.

Location: The Pump House, Merchants Road, Hotwells, Bristol BS8 4PZ England

I love these high quality threads as much as I love hugging people 🤍. I love my craft because it brings people joy, helps them relax and connect with their inner child. In a chaotic world, to take time to create is an act of rebellion.

Join the thread revolution! Link in bio 🤍

Did anyone say summer party? 🌞
Oh yeah, we had one and guess what? We had a blast!
Lovely sunny day, great music and above all, crafts!🧵💗🪡

Thank you BristolSoberSpaces for making my dream come true! Finally bringing my workshop to a sober party in Bristol, woop woop!🌟

As a person who lives a sober life, I find it very important to have events like this one, where I can have fun and see the joy in my heart mirrored in those around me. I felt safe, I felt seen, I felt welcomed.

A cricket team and me stitching stressfree.

To be honest, all I wanted was to chill by a tree, do some stitching and catch up with digital stuff. I took a little break to lay down, only to realise that within minutes there were more men closer to me than the amount of dates I've on in my whole life 😂. I did ask God at some point for more love, I didn't realise it will come like this but I'd gladly take it.

Back to embroidery, what form of art is calling your heart this week?
