Cathy Kearney

It was such a privilege and joy to run this workshop with my dear friend, Samira, spending time with this incredible group of individuals. I was truly inspired and smiled all the way back to Liverpool.

@ThreadsUK_ @HeadStartNewham What a great morning with great people!

Cathy used to work with this incredible group of parents when she lived in London. Today she got to run a knitting workshop with Emelia for them. What a privilege 😍@HeadStartNewham #parents #community #crafts #knitting

@ThreadsUK_ @MayorofLondon @LDN_Culture The smiles say it all 😃. I missed you this week. Glad you had a fun time.

Some action shots from our community craft workshops. Artists hard at work 😃 #MakeLondon ⁦@MayorofLondon⁩ ⁦@LDN_Culture⁩

We really enjoyed our second fabric painting session last week … we were delighted to finish our flowers which we rounded off with just a little touch of sparkle ✨ #MakeLondon @MayorOfLondon @LDN_Culture

We so enjoyed our first Craft Workshop on Friday morning. Lots of beautiful fabric painting; colours, blending, coffee and chat. Looking forward to seeing all our wonderful attendees again on Friday and continuing our creative journey together!

Threads Reunited 😍! It’s been a long time since we met as a core team in person … first ever for Emelia and Noelene. #teamworkmakesthedreamwork #crafts #community #sharing #caring

We had a lot of fun today testing out our moulding skills, making fimo brooches, cards, pendants, earrings and a very cute mini piglet

@LabourMarina Huge congratulations, Marina. So pleased for you. I know how long you have worked towards this and have no doubt you will be diligent and caring in your new role. 😍

Assembly Member Ahmad - it’s official!

We did a great knitting workshop..it was all very woolly!

We love to create and take inspiration from creation..

Thinking back to our card making workshop last week. What a creative bunch we are!

@MrsMoore23 @BetterStartBpl @CPCS_Official I remember it well 😃. I have fond memories of the course and working with you and the team in Blackpool!

@ThreadsUK_ I’m thinking of making some cards with mine. I have enough for 28 cards and each triangle is unique in its shade.

We had so much fun yesterday testing out whether it was possible to run an indigo dyeing workshop online. Turns out it is! Watch this space or DM us if you’d like to attend.

This is beautiful. I am a huge fan of all things @Craftivists Yesterday I completed the online course which has gently challenged me to develop the activist side of my love for crafts and taking a slow approach in a fast world. Important for all of us @ThreadsUK_ too

Stitching the words always feels so meaningful... letting the words rest and take root. Thanks for the inspiration @Craftivists

It’s good to appreciate the talents of others. Only one of us at Threads can do patchwork. The rest of us are in awe 😍

At Threads, we like to share existing skills and learn new ones. On a dark winter’s day, it’s encouraging to be reminded that we learnt to take photos of beautiful summer flowers
