Private Workshops

Welcome to Hoop & Fred Workshops!

Hi, I'm Stephie, and I absolutely love running workshops and sharing the joy of stitching and creating with others. With over ten years of experience in leading various art workshops and community engagement projects, I am passionate about encouraging everyone to explore and embrace their own creativity.

What to Expect

I want you to leave a Hoop & Fred workshop feeling better than you did when you walked in and excited to go home and create some more. Maybe you'll fall head over heels for embroidery like I did, or perhaps you'll simply enjoy spending a couple of hours being arty, leaving with the confidence to try other new things. My workshops are designed to be friendly, fun, and suitable for beginners. Everyone gets the time to ask questions and receive one-on-one tuition if needed.

What's Included

All materials are provided, including full stitch and pattern guides, so you can complete your project at home. Whether you're a complete beginner or looking to hone your skills, my workshops have something for everyone.

What Others Are Saying

“It was an absolute pleasure working with Hoop & Fred for a series of workshops in each of our Affinity Living apartment buildings! Stephie tailored these workshops perfectly to suit our brand – from the hoop design to delivery style. The workshops were friendly, fun, and relaxed. And made all residents feel comfortable socialising and stitching (even if they’d never sewn before!). These workshops proved so popular, we had to bring Hoop & Fred back for another three workshops to meet demand!”
— Charlotte Telfer, Marketing Manager, Affinity Living
