Location: The Hand & Lock Prize Exhibition, The Building Centre

Duration: 3 Hour Workshop

To celebrate this years Hand & Lock Prize Exhibition we are running two taster classes hosted in our exhibition space at The Building Centre.

Discover the magical world of celestial goldwork embroidery with this 3 hour embroidery taster. Our Celestial Moon taster is a perfect introduction to metal thread work, its applications and learning the key elements of Goldwork embroidery. Historically associated with ceremonial and military uniform, the technique is now also popular in customization, couture and interior design. Using threads that are imitation gold, silver, copper, or coloured allows embroiderers to create metallic surface designs that reflect light and create dazzling effects. Under the expert guidance of our hand embroidery tutors, you'll learn the essential skills needed for this intricate craft.

Hand & Lock School - In Person Course Set Up

How the Course Works

All in person courses are delivered in our embroidery school, located at Hand & Lock, 86 Margaret Street, Fitzrovia, London, W1W 8TE. The school is situated upstairs from our studio and is easily accessible by public transport.

Please arrive at least 5 minutes early to the class - if you are earlier there are lots of great coffee shops nearby. If you are running late please let us know as soon as possible.

Lunch is not included and the school room will be locked for a one-hour break, with the timing set by the tutor. We also have a list of local places to grab lunch, and there are lots of lovely venues nearby.

Accessibility

Our school is located upstairs in our studio. Unfortunately the building does not have lift access, so use of the stairs would be necessary.

Materials

All of the materials you need for this class will be provided for you as part of your course experience, but you are more than welcome to bring your own equipment if you would rather use your own tools.

With small class sizes and tutors who are attentive and personable, everyone receives the guidance and encouragement they need to reach their creative goals. Our teaching style is approachable and down to earth and we go out of our way to share knowledge while celebrating each student’s progress. What makes the School so special is the community that grows around it, supportive, creative and often leading to friendships that last well beyond the classroom. The friendships and support that grow here are often just as valuable as the skills you learn.
