Embroidery Magic
Embroidering with Intention
The first Embroidery Magic class was a success! It was unanimous that students wanted 5 days instead of 4 so the next offering will be Monday through Friday. I will teach this again in 2025 but due to interest we are adding another class this year in June.
June 17 to 21 2024, Monday through Friday 10:30AM to 3PM Class Fee $275
In this workshop we will learn the fundamental techniques of surface embroidery and apply them to the ancient art of intention. Throughout history, art and specifically embroidery has been used for protection and/or manifestation with the use of symbolism and color. Even the stitches chosen can have meaning in the overall creation of a magical embroidery. Explore your creative talent within a safe and nurturing community where the joy and healing of needle arts will be embraced. All levels of experience welcome. Note: stitches taught in this class will be different from the Foundation series.
