Workshops
All workshops use
machine embroidery techniques, a basic machine is fine but if you have a more
advanced machine this could be a good opportunity to put it through its paces
making fabrics for the Wild Art Dolls, Vessels or Pocket Bags. Plenty of hand
stitch embellishment and lots of fun!!
If
your group would like one of these workshops please email me for further
details, available dates and fees.
