Workshop: 'Delicate Threads: Filet Lace Making' with Jingyi Li
Join artist Jingyi Li for this hands-on textile workshop exploring delicate craft of filet lace.
Grounded in the delicate technique of filet lace, this workshop introduces participants to the process of this historic handcraft. Led by artist Jingyi Li, the session will begin with a short introduction to Li’s use of lace in her work and a demonstration of how the lace is formed, along with the basic stitches used to create filled and open squares within the structure.
Participants will then begin creating their own filet lace sample, learning to work across the mesh and gradually develop a pattern of their choosing. As we work, the workshop invites a slower way of making—one that emphasises patience, attention to detail, and the quiet transformation of thread into a structured yet delicate textile.
