slow stitch sipping tea. slow craft and hand stitching sewing or embroidery by Ellie Beck Petalplum. Australian craft and creative workshops and online courses

Let’s get creative!

I’ve been a maker my whole life, and I know it to be nourishing, soul-energising and down-right-connecting to self, community, our ancestors and future generations.

Stitching, crafting, sewing, quilting, natural-dye, loom weaving, story-telling, book-binding… it doesn’t really matter what you do, it matters how it makes you feel.

I love everything. Thank you for your beautiful fabrics and threads which truly inspire me.

~ gratefully, Deborah

Ellie Beck Petalplum - slow stitching mindful making creative self.

I believe in doing our creative making in a way that feels like coming ‘home’, not having to follow a pattern or the rules that seem to inhibit us, but slipping into that gentle quiet tender Self, the memories of childhood when we made fairy houses, mud pies and lots of mistakes along the journey of becoming our own unique selves.
