Three children making rope creations

About

Join award-winning textile designer Alice Burnhope for a creative workshop exploring natural threads and fibres to make colourful, one-of-a-kind rope creations! Express your identity and heritage by incorporating meaningful colours into your bespoke ropes. Then enjoy coiling your personalised rope to craft functional coasters, decorations, and keyrings to take home.

Learn new skills, take part in hands-on making activities, and take home a finished rope creation. You’ll also receive a small kit with basic materials and tools so you can continue stitching and upcycling at home!

This workshop is family-friendly, ideal for beginners, and suitable for all. Learn new skills, take part in hands-on making activities, and take home a finished rope creation.

You'll also receive a small kit with basic materials and tools so you can continue stitching at home!​
