- a Christmas textile workshop
Join us for a Christmas textile workshop by Sharon Blackman with live music by Rob Blackman.
Celebrate the joy of Christmas! In this workshop you will be encouraged to explore your own unique creativity and make a delightful picture from re-cycled textiles - a picture to inspire your home with the message of Christmas or maybe to give to someone special. Come and relax in the peaceful setting of Pleshey, listen to some festive live music while you sew and create something very special. Sharon will give you step by step instructions and lots of inspiration.
Sharon is a textile artist and has been making textile pictures from recycled fabrics for about 25 years. She has a quirky, folk art style and particularly loves to make pictures inspired by gardens, cottages, the seaside and the beautiful, simple everyday pleasures of life. She sells her original pictures and cards all over the world and has a large online following. She loves to inspire others to make textile pictures and to receive the same joy and peace that this technique has given to her.
The afternoon can be combined with an lunch beforehand or even overnight stay or two at the House. If you would like either please contact the Retreat House direct 01245 237251.
