Hand embroidery + Felt applique
In this one day workshop we will create an adorable fibre art project that will put your decorative stitching on display.
We will be practicing our needle art skills with various types of decorative stitching using coloured embroidery floss on a stretched frame. Felt shapes will be cut by hand to create this applique artwork. Add some pizzazz using beads, buttons and sequins to give the project an extra level of whimsy.
We will have a variety of patterns to choose from, or sketch your own design for a one-of-a-kind work of art!
Our Mini Makers (ages 5-6) will work on a simplified version of this project to suit their skill level. This is a wonderful opportunity to practice fine motor skills and creative expression through the fibre arts and needle craft.
