Lovely friends, there is still time to book a space at Fallow, this Saturday.

Many of you know that I also use stitch as a creative medium and that it is intrinsic to my work as writer and poet.

Stitching is incredibly healing, and combined with poetry it creates a visual impact that is a wonderful stepping-stone for conversations around healing, or activism.

If you’d fancy trying it out, you’ll need:

Words from a poem, or a word, or phrase

Any fabric or item of clothing that you want to stitch onto

Some thread – embroidery or ordinary sewing thread

Needle

Scissors

Fabric marking pen (optional!)

Tickets are Pay What You Decide from £6/8/10 and free for Women Poets’ Network members.

You do not need to be proficient at embroidery or stitching. The focus will be on mark-making, the stitching of meaningful words, and the rich layers of metaphor that stitching allows for.
