A week to experiment
The Summer Textile Lab is our creative summer programme in Mataró — a casal d'estiu, as they're known in Catalonia. It's a space to investigate with your hands. Instead of following a single fixed project, you explore several textile techniques, try out materials and textures, and let the process lead you. What matters is not the final result, but discovering, making mistakes and enjoying creating at your own pace all week long.
The techniques you will explore
Over the week you get hands-on with our four textile techniques. No prior experience needed in any of them.
Tufting
Create with a tufting gun that inserts yarn into a stretched fabric, building up a plush, raised texture. Borrissol's signature technique.

Weaving
Weave by hand on the artisan loom, combining colours and textures thread by thread, at a calm pace.
Learn more
Punch Needle
With a hollow needle you build up textures and designs with yarn on fabric. Rhythmic, tactile and very addictive.

Needle Felting
Transform wool fibre into solid figures and pieces by poking it with a special needle. Meditative and intuitive.
Learn moreWho is it for?
For anyone aged 12 and up who feels like creating, with or without experience. We work in small groups so each participant gets attention and can go at their own pace.
