What's on
Come and take part in Stitching Ashbourne!
Join us at the Cornerstone Café for a relaxed, sociable afternoon of stitching, conversation, and creativity. In this facilitated session, you’ll have the chance to design and stitch your own square to add to the artwork whilst enjoying a chat over a warming cuppa and maybe a slice of the delicious cakes on offer. Materials are provided, and no sewing experience is needed.
Stitching Ashbourne is about community, creativity, and connection. Together, we will create a large-scale embroidered textile work that celebrates the built and cultural heritage of Ashbourne.
Surrounding a centerpiece depicting some of Ashbourne’s most iconic buildings will be over 100 hand-stitched squares, each one telling a unique story, memory, or celebration of what Ashbourne means to its people. Whether you’re 6 or 95, this is your chance to stitch your story into Ashbourne’s history.
Come along, bring a friend, and be part of something truly special. Together, we’ll stitch Ashbourne’s story. Tickets available here: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/stitching-ashbourne-workshop-creative-cafe-tickets-1703948869939
This and all Stitching Ashbourne workshops are free to attend. Donations towards the project are very welcome via our crowdfunding page. https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/stitching-ashbourne
