In Embroidering the Everyday, acclaimed textile artist Cas Holmes explores the everyday and the domestic, generating a wealth of inspiration and raw material to create textile work that resonates with time and place.

- How to be more resourceful with what we have to hand, including working with vintage scraps, homemade dyes and papers, and even teabags and biscuits.
- Rediscovering family history and how photographs and objects can provide inspiration, including Cass own exploration of her Romani heritage.
- Drawing inspiration from our local landscape and how it changes through the seasons.
- How to transform materials with mark-making, printing, image transfer, collage and stitch.
