Activities

The Embroiderers’ Guild regularly commissions speakers and tutors to take part in our on-line events. We also offer on-line courses, and are currently working on the relaunch of our ‘Inspired to Create’ suite.

Talks:


THREAD TALKS is a series of online lectures hosted by the Embroiderers’ Guild. Our speakers talk about inspirations, community projects and lots of other textile art related topics. They also discuss creativity, how to resolve blocks, and how they create their pieces.

Speakers in this series have included textile artists Richard Box, Nicky Barfoot, Angie Hughes, Ninya Mikhaila and Maria Wigley.

Thread Talks is an on-going series – watch our ‘Guild News‘ for announcements and dates of future talks.

Recordings of previous speakers are available
