Full description

Explore the stories, memories and identities hidden within clothing. Based on part of a four-day residential slow stitching retreat which was held at my creative workshops venue before retiring, this 85-page digital workbook invites you to look beyond fabric and fashion to discover the experiences, relationships and personal histories woven into the garments that accompany us through life.

From favourite coats and school uniforms to inherited clothing, repaired garments and treasured pieces that could never quite be thrown away, this workbook explores how cloth becomes connected to memory, belonging, change and self-expression.

Inside you will explore:

- Clothing as personal history and memory

- Garments as witnesses to everyday life

- Identity, belonging and self-expression through cloth

- How clothing remembers the body

- Working with cuffs, collars, pockets and garment fragments

- Preserving wear, fading, repairs and hidden details

- Labels, initials and textile traces

- Inherited clothing and family memory

- Clothes from different seasons of life

- Repair as resilience and personal storytelling

- Textile self-portraits and symbolic cloth work

- Reflection prompts and creative exercises throughout

The workbook also includes themed projects inspired by memory, identity and personal storytelling.

Suitable for:

- Slow stitchers

- Textile artists

- Memory keepers

- Textile journal makers

- Creative storytellers

- Workshop leaders

Format:

- 85-page PDF workbook

- Digital download

- View on screen or print at home
