Workshops

Lotta loves to host her pattern and print-making workshops and retreats. Drawing on over two decades of experience as a professional textile designer, author and commercial artist, her approach pairs curiosity with a genuine exchange of ideas. 

"Together, we embrace the joy of the process, get our hands dirty and celebrate the messy beauty of life and nature”

Lotta takes makers on a creative journey full of happy coincidences, new discoveries, fresh perspective, meaningful connections, and joyful community. 

It’s about hands-on learning, discovering new techniques, and treasuring the small details in the everyday. 

Our workshops are for beginners and professionals alike. We welcome makers who want new inspiration to those simply inspired to make. They’re for people passionate about patterns to those simply passionate about wanting a new pattern in life.

Immersive Retreats

Immersive retreats are just that. Immersive. It’s a time to be completely distracted without the usual distractions. We have hosted retreats in an array of inspirational places including India, Mexico, Swaziland, Portugal, San Francisco, New York and Lotta’s beloved Aland. 

Whether you are in a creative field, have creative hobbies or simply crave some me-time, we help you explore and release your own creativity in a vibrant and captivating environment. Learn how to use your hands to work with color, motifs, perspective and patterns. Take home with you new techniques, new friends and amazing memories.

Lotta! I have been a fan of hers for such a long time, and she was so personable and really set a great tone for the workshop! She made it feel as if it was a gathering of friends. She put a lot of thought into the class, materials, and set up.

Having opportunity to play - and being encouraged to experiment, make mistakes, not be critical, play.

Åland was a very well organized workshop. The setting was perfect, the printing was so much fun and it was great to meet people from all over the world. There were some very creative people at this workshop. Thank you Lotta
