The workshop in detail

  • 2h30
  • 15 years min.
  • 3 to 6 participants
  • Up to 6 people for a privatization
  • Immerse yourself in the world inhabited by Sophie, Mathilde and their team, and discover upcycling. They invite you into their beautiful premises, to introduce you to embroidery. These artisans, who are committed to the circular economy, will take great pleasure in passing on their passion and knowledge, while at the same time raising your awareness with regard to a more sustainable economy!

    Once they have shown you around their premises and presented the approach adopted by their association, they will explain the basics of embroidery: the back stitch, the front stitch, the chain stitch... Then, it's time to practice!

    You will first create a custom design that will then be embroidered using a drum. You can choose the colour of the threads - be creative! 

    It is under the expert eye of the artisans that you will be guided through the creative process. You will leave this workshop with your beautiful personalised embroidery on upcycled fabric!

    Workshop location

    Sophie, Mathilde and their team's workshop is located in Ixelles, right next to the cemetery. It can be reached by public transport (train, tram, bus and metro).

    Très chouette lieu à découvrir ! Atelier vraiment pour débutants n'ayant jamais eu la moindre expérience. Rythme un peu lent pour celles qui ont déjà une petite expérience pour manier une aiguille. Ambiance détente
