This workshop is part of the Garden Museum’s Branch Out programme, a series of free events and activities exploring gardening, art, floristry, plant science, history, design, and more!

 

Join RIBA Learning for an afternoon of sewing and socialising inspired by delightful surroundings of the Garden Museum. Come along to meet new people or chat to an old friend, while you stitch some shapes, words, patterns or draw with thread. The fabric will evolve to represent the contributors and the conversations that unfold.

Stitching Time is a travelling project that will visit several venues over the three year refurbishment of RIBA’s iconic 66 Portland Place, London. RIBA Learning will ‘take the sew on the road’ to engage with the public and build a community of stitchers and contributors.
