We all have one, and for many of us, it's a source of low-level shame: the stash. Why do we accumulate patterns and yarn we never use? I've definitely been there, too. My own dressmaking pattern stash was annoying paper clutter on the surface, but it was also a symptom of a much deeper problem and numerous insecurities. Although the curtain goes up with my story, this workshop is about creating a safe space for you and develops into a candid, gentle conversation to open up and set the stage for the rest of our weekend. We'll use our pattern stashes as a launchpad to explore the personal realisations waiting for you. This session is designed to get you ready for the personal style journey ahead!
