Unwind, Weave, and Find Tranquility at the Mindful Tapestry Workshop!
Craft your own peace in a small, supportive setting.
Join The artist Cristina Nicotra for a unique and enriching experience exploring the ancient tapestry weaving techniques at the Mindful Tapestry Workshop.
In this intimate workshop, you'll learn the basics of tapestry weaving while creating your own beautiful small piece of textile art and immersing yourself in a meditative and historical exploration of this age-old craft.
Here's what awaits you:
Weave your way to tranquillity: Learn fundamental tapestry weaving techniques, have time to practise the new skills with me, and discover the joy of creating a unique small tapestry you can hang in your house.
Experience the distinctive character of Sardinian wool: Work with genuine Sardinian wool known for its distinctive texture. This robust fibre adds a touch of rustic charm and historical authenticity to your woven creation.
A journey through time: Explore the fascinating history of weaving a craft practised for centuries across the globe and in Dublin.
Find peace in the process: Weaving is a meditative practice that fosters focus and inner calm, and I will guide you with calming breathing and meditative invitations.
This workshop is perfect for you if:
• You're a complete beginner interested in learning a new relaxing skill.
