Stitch Meditation
*Certified Stitch Meditation Teacher (CSMT)
by Liz Kettle of Textile Evolution
Creator of the Stitch Meditation Practice
What is Stitch Meditation?
Stitch Meditation is the intentional hand-stitching of beautiful small pieces of fabric joined together. It’s a mindful practice—an active meditation that allows you to connect deeply with the moment. Through simple stitches and calming breaths, you’ll quiet the chatter between your left and right brain, finding a state of FLOW. By the end of the class, you’ll have created a pleasing composition that reflects your journey.
Why Participate? To still your mind and immerse yourself in the richness of the moment and the materials.
The in-person class fee includes a "kit" featuring silk, linen, wool, hand-dyed cotton, ribbon, yarn, lace, beads, and other unique materials.
Each small composition tells a story and invites you on a creative journey. In this class, we’ll explore design principles and resources, as well as color theories that relate to your project.
Students are encouraged to bring their own meaningful fabrics, and additional materials will be available for purchase.
