Lacemaking Workshop with Catherine Lillie

Hull City Hall

Synopsis

Take your first steps with bobbin lacemaking, now officially classed as an Endangered Craft on the 2025 Heritage Crafts Red List. The workshop will open with a brief history of lace and lacemaking before you get started with the basic bobbin lace stitches, which you will then use to create either a flower brooch / corsage or bookmark using recycled and repurposed threads. Examples of lace from the Ferens collection will also be available to view. No experience or equipment needed, just a love of making, textiles, or a desire to keep this endangered heritage craft alive. You will: • receive step-by-step guidance to learn the basic bobbin lace stitches and techniques at your own pace • receive a pattern template and access to resources to support you beyond the workshop • meet other crafters in an inclusive, friendly and welcoming space. Come on your own or bring a friend! • have time away to learn, relax and be mindfully absorbed in a creative activity • be able to take away your work. The workshop is run by Catherine Lillie – lacemaker, educator and Trustee for Heritage Crafts. All resources are provided This event takes place from 10:15am - 3:45pm. There will be a break for lunch.
