Welcome to Open Coven. I am Liz Watkin, embroidery artist, adult educator and founder of Open Coven.


Many years ago I was a new mother with a full time job. I yearned for creative and spiritual time but I struggled do to find the space and opportunities. I started to combine the two, creating projects where I was using art making to explore my connection to magick and the divine. Since a child I have loved hand sewing and eventually this love featured in my creative as well as spiritual practice.
For several years now I have guided others in how to use creativity to develop a ritual/magickal practice that also results in unique artifacts that can also be used in spellwork, thus completing the circle. From this work I expanded into embroidery and slow stitch kits designed to harness the esoteric and magickal.
