Workshops
Workshops are currently in development and will launch once Eleanor's studio renovation is complete.
Open Workshops
Designed for intimate groups of up to four people, these workshops offer a relaxed setting to explore natural dyeing techniques.
Guided by the seasons and the dye garden, participants will work with currently available plants. Learn botanical colour processes and take home a beautifully unique, seasonal hand-dyed textile piece.
Private Workshops
If you're interested in arranging a private workshop for yourself, friends or family, Eleanor would be delighted to hear from you.
Private workshops are available by enquiry and can be adapted from her existing workshop programme for your group.
If you'd like to be among the first to hear when workshops are announced, you can sign up to the newsletter or follow Eleanor's journey on Instagram, where she'll be sharing updates as the studio and workshops take shape.
Community & Charity Workshops
Teaching has long been an important part of Eleanor's creative practice. Alongside her work as a textile artist, she has previously taught sewing and creative skills through social enterprises supporting women who have experienced trafficking, homelessness and involvement with the criminal justice system. If you'd like to learn more about this part of her journey, please visit the About page.
She is keen to continue working with charities, community organisations and social enterprises, using textiles as a way to build confidence, creativity and connection. If your organisation would be interested in collaborating, please get in touch via the enquiry form.
What People Are Saying
I love the wreath I made at Ellie’s workshop! Ellie made the process so easy for such a novice as I to anything green. She had collected masses of greenery from her own garden & could even help me learn what they are, as well as collections of beautiful things from the florist, haberdashery & the Christmas aisle for decorating. Ellie gave clear instructions & shared many great tips during the afternoon. I was fascinated that from the same collection of materials, everyone’s wreath finished so individually. Thank you so much, Ellie!
— VickiEllie is an absolutely brilliant teacher! She is so lovely, warm and welcoming to all. She instantly puts you at ease and encourages everyone to get stuck in (even the ones of us who don’t think we’ve got a creative bone in our body). Sessions are filled with laughter and joy and there are no silly questions. If you want to escape life for a short while and just relax, definitely go to any of Ellie’s workshops, you won’t regret it!
