Making Space is a series of workshops that will encourage you to think with your hands, embrace a willingness to play, allow yourself the space to be creative and find connection in the act of making.
About this workshop: Join Alison of ASTRL Fibres and learn how to handcraft a beautiful coiled basket to take home with you. Over the course of this 2.5hr session, Alison will guide you through a beginners coiling and stitching technique using recycled cotton cord in a variety of colour options.
