In this beautiful Dragonfly Brooch Workshop, you’ll create a vibrant, hand-stitched dragonfly that’s full of colour, texture, and personality. Working on felt, you’ll embroider your dragonfly using simple but effective stitches, then bring it to life with a beaded body for that extra sparkle and a lovely 3D finish. Whether you’re a complete beginner or an experienced stitcher looking for a relaxing project, this session is designed to be friendly, supportive, and enjoyable.
You’ll be guided step-by-step through the process, from choosing your colour palette to building up the wings and details with embroidery. The felt base makes it easy to work with and is perfect for creating bold, clean shapes, while the beads add weight and dimension, turning your stitched piece into something that really stands out. By the end of the workshop, you’ll have a finished dragonfly that can be made into a brooch to wear and treasure, or adapted as part of a wider textile project, ideal for adding a touch of 3D detail to a bag, hoop, journal cover, or patchwork piece.
It’s a wonderfully mindful way to spend some creative time, and you’ll go home with a finished make that’s both eye-catching and versatile, perfect as a gift, or as a special handmade treat for yourself.
