FAQ

Some details of how the subscription will work...

  • How long will I have access? You'll have lifetime access to the patterns, lessons and technique library.

  • How does the Forage School of SlowStitching work? When you go to purchase your first class on the school you'll be prompted to sign up for an account in our school. From then on, you'll be able to access all of your Forage classes from your dashboard.

  • What if I have a question about the project? You can ask questions via the exclusive Facebook page only for enrolled students, you can ask questions on the Favourite Things class chat on the school, or you can send an email via our website.

  • Why are you using edited zoom lessons for the recorded classes? After re-watching the recorded zoom classes we decided that they contained a lot of information presented in a conversational way which had a nice feel to it. Many students enrolled previously have opted to learn with recordings of the live zoom because of time differences. All non-relevant parts have been edited out, leaving you with the best bits!

Your slow stitching guide

Slow stitcher and forager Lisa Mattock

I am lucky to have a very creative Mum who loves all things patchwork, and who instilled in me from an early age the thrill of finding 'treasures' at fetes and garage sales. I spent my early childhood marinating in her eclectic, colorful influence. It was Mum’s enthusiasm and encouragement that first led me to explore my love for textiles - a lifetime addiction to 'reclaimed goodies' has ensued. I have gathered expertise in many creative pursuits as a florist, food stylist, and visual merchandiser, which culminated in owning an upmarket florist and homewares store, in Sydney’s eastern suburbs for many years. These experiences, combined with my long-standing passions for vintage fabrics, recycling, and simple stitching made creating my business, called 'Forage', a natural evolution. It’s a place I can share my passion for discovering and collecting fabrics and embellishments from near and far, both reclaimed/vintage and brand new from our favourite quilt stores. Welcome! I look forward to sharing all that inspires and delights me. Lisa, xx
