Incorporating mixed fibres into embroidery opens up a world of possibilities, allowing you to explore new textures, patterns, and meanings in your work. Whether you’re layering fabrics, stitching details, or adding texture, textiles can bring a unique and personal touch to your art.
Janne Williams will join us at Makerie for a two part class to teach her modern embroidery technique on her beautiful floral design. With her guidance, you'll learn how to personalize this piece with colours and fibres and make it truly your own.
