If you are over 18 years old, and bereaved by suicide, you are invited to attend a FREE creative workshop on Saturday 22nd August, 10.45am to 1pm, Hotel Kilmore,  Dublin Rd, Killygarry, Cavan, H12 F6Y7.

We are creating a HUGG suicide memorial quilt, made up of hand-crafted individual fabric squares; each unique square honouring our loved ones who died by suicide. The finished piece will communicate to others that suicide grief doesn’t have to be faced alone.

This workshop is suitable for men and women. No previous crafting or sewing experience needed!  Being in the company of others who have a shared experience of suicide loss can provide comfort, support, and hope, while needle crafting can provide inspiration. This activity may help you to explore and discover meaningful memories of your loved one. Fibre artist & expert, Marie Hopkins, will provide a demonstration on needle felting and how to get started, explaining how to use the tools, blend colours, and use the needle.  You will be provided with all you need to explore your inner creativity and intuition, and enough time to create a hand-crafted fabric square.  See attached participants’ description of the workshop and answers to frequently asked questions. 

Spaces in this workshop are limited. To avoid disappointment, you are advised to register early.  

Register here: HUGG Creative Workshop Registration Form  OR call HUGG to register over the phone: 01 513 4048 OR  email info@HUGG.ie

Complimentary refreshments will be served on arrival, and sandwiches at the end of the workshop.

We hope that you will join us.
