Mariposa Stitch - Wall Art Adventure using Raffia

Mariposa Stitch Wall Hanging

Named after the Spanish word mariposa meaning butterfly, this beautiful stitch is loved for its light, flowing structure and organic movement. One of the most appealing qualities of the Mariposa Stitch is its fluidity—rather than following a rigid pattern, it invites makers to choose their own adventure, allowing the piece to evolve naturally as they work. Each wall hanging becomes a unique expression of texture, rhythm, and creativity.

In this workshop, Sarah will guide you in using raffia—a natural fibre prized for its strength and versatility—to create a contemporary wall hanging. Whether you follow a simple path or experiment with shape and form, the Mariposa Stitch offers endless possibilities for personal expression.

A relaxed, creative session where there are no wrong turns—just beautiful variations waiting to emerge.
