We are very pleased to share that we have stocked a small collection of hand-woven khadi and Ajrak fabrics on our website.

We had a Phulkari embroidery (technique-led) workshop in Lisbon over the weekend. Most of our pouches are made using this traditional method of embroidering a surface. We had some sweat and tears during the workshop, but we made it to the other side of it all :)  

Exciting news for the costumers who have asked to see the pouches in person. You can now see and purchase the pouches at Retrosaria Rosa Pomar in Lisbon. The address is:  R. Maria Andrade 50A, 1170-217 Lisbon

We had a very interesting morning learning about the history of Kantha/ Gindi embroidery and how it was used to up cycle old clothes and make them into new useable products. Participants made small drawstring pouches with naturally dyed rags and embroidery threads. Class was guided and taught by Gul E Raana. Some snippets of the class below:     

We had so much fun creating beautiful scarves with natural dyes with a wonderful group and later embellishing them with Kantha stitching in Barcelona today. Sharing some snippets of the event here.

We are very pleased to invite you to join Wenlin Studio on December 9, 2023, for a Natural Dyeing & Embroidery Workshop hosted by Celine Guillerm and instructed by Gul E Raana.
