Embroidered patches, used in military uniforms to signify rank and title, have evolved into a symbol of self-expression and rebellion in modern fashion.
In this hands-on workshop, you’ll design and sew a patch of your own under the guidance of textile artist Natasja Van Wyk. Whether you're a seasoned craft enthusiast or a complete beginner, this experience is designed for everyone.
All materials will be provided, along with templates to spark your creativity.
Please note, this workshop is recommended for adults.
