Full description

Create stitched pockets, hidden compartments and meaningful textile spaces filled with memory and story. Based on part of a four-day residential slow stitching retreat which was held at my creative workshops venue before retiring, this 88-page digital workbook explores pockets, folded cloth forms, stitched compartments and layered textile structures as creative and symbolic objects.

Using reclaimed fabrics, visible mending, layering and hand stitching, you'll discover how pockets can become places of comfort, protection, memory and personal storytelling. This workbook encourages a thoughtful and imaginative approach to working with fabric.

Inside you will explore:

- Pockets as symbolic and creative forms

- Working with reclaimed and well-loved fabrics

- Patch pockets, hidden pockets and layered structures

- Folded cloth forms and stitched envelopes

- Pocket books and textile journals

- Layering, fraying and visible repair

- Choosing fabrics for atmosphere and meaning

- Stitch as protection, repair and storytelling

- Colour palettes inspired by memory and worn cloth

- Reflection prompts and creative exercises throughout

- Ten themed projects for personal textile storytelling

Featured themes include:

- Memory and hidden spaces
