The Passementerie Club is Coming - An Exclusive Community for Craft Enthusiasts
I'm thrilled to announce that something special is launching very soon—a dedicated space for everyone who loves passementerie, wants to master this timeless craft, or simply appreciates the artistry and heritage behind one of the world's most endangered textile traditions.
What Is Passementerie?
For those new to the craft, passementerie is the exquisite art of creating beautiful, decorative trims, braids, cords, tassels, and embellishments. Whether adorning garments, luxury fashion, interior design, or fine art textiles, passementerie represents centuries of skilled craftsmanship. Yet today, this beautiful tradition faces an uncertain future as fewer craftspeople practice and teach these specialised techniques.
Introducing the Passementerie Club
I'm launching the Passementerie Club on Patreon - an exclusive membership community designed to celebrate, preserve, and teach this remarkable craft. Whether you're a seasoned textile artist, a curious beginner, or a passionate maker, this club offers something for everyone.
What You'll Discover Inside
The Passementerie Club brings together comprehensive, high-quality content focused on every aspect of this intricate craft:
Recorded Making Tutorials — Step-by-step video instruction covering tassel making, cord spinning, weaving projects, and beyond. Learn directly from my unique viewpoint and approach to passementerie, with techniques ranging from foundational to advanced.
In-Depth Deep Dives — Explore the history, evolution, cultural significance, and modern applications of passementerie techniques. Understand the "why" behind the methods and discover how different traditions approach this craft around the world.
Exclusive Member Benefits — Multiple membership tiers mean you can choose the level of access and content that's right for you, with options to deepen your engagement with the community.
A Community of Makers — Connect with fellow passementerie enthusiasts, share your work, ask questions, and grow alongside a supportive community dedicated to this endangered craft.
Why This Matters Now
Passementerie is a craft at a crossroads. With fewer practitioners and teachers, traditional knowledge risks being lost. By building this community, we're not just learning a skill—we're participating in the preservation and celebration of a heritage art form. Every person who learns passementerie helps ensure these techniques survive and flourish for future generations.
Coming Very Soon
The Passementerie Club is almost ready to open its doors. If you've been looking for a dedicated resource to explore passementerie tutorials, connect with other passionate people, and deepen your understanding of this beautiful craft, this is for you.
