Join us in embroidering the pink “Impact Power Pak” – an ode to clothing. A unique garment filled with shared memories and insights. During this workshop you can embroider a piece of fabric with fifty shades of pink yarn and beads, share your story and create a work of art together with others. You will learn different embroidery techniques and discover how textiles and personal stories come together. The workshop is accessible and suitable for all levels, from beginners to experienced embroiderers. Everything revolves around participating, discovering and enjoying the creative process.
Embroidery is an age-old craft that connects stories and traditions with creativity and craftsmanship. It is an expressive technique with which you can decorate fabric and convey personal messages. In this project, embroidery symbolizes connection and reflection: every stitch carries a story. From decorative stitches to symbolic patterns, embroidery is an accessible and meditative way to show your own style and voice. It invites attention and patience, while at the same time offering space for spontaneity and experimentation.
At the end of the workshop, you will not only leave your embroidery behind in the shared garment, but you will also take inspiration and new insights home with you.
