Cynthia Greep from NZ Textile Experiences

Textile Collage Stitch Workshop - tutor Sally Reynolds
25 May 2024 (10:00 am) to 26 May 2024 (4:00 pm)
Broadgreen House, The Le Cren Room, 276 Nayland Road, Stoke,

Be inspired by native flora and create a unique handstitched textile collage with printing and painting techniques incorporated.

This two-day workshop is designed to explore your creativity to create a hand-stitched textile collage artwork(s). Sally is an experienced painter and textile artist who enjoys passing on her knowledge to others. Using recycled and repurposed fabrics, along with basic print-making techniques, such as stencils and Gelli prints, you will create unique fabrics to incorporate into your own work. Taking inspiration from native NZ plants, Sally will guide you along the process from designing your collage to incorporating various stitching techniques using embroidery cottons.

The workshop is suitable for everyone from experienced textile artists to beginners.

Sally currently has work at the Suter Gallery (a painting).

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
