Enjoy transforming a black and white photograph or postcard into a one-of-a-kind work of art in my most popular class.
About this Event

August 8, 2026 (earlier embroidery on postcards: May 9th)

This three-hour class will begin with basic stitch samples on a cardstock template and then move into design and preparation of the final artwork. Instruction will also cover composition and color, pre-punching holes in stages, how to recover from mistakes and paper collapse and simple framing options.

Participants are encouraged to bring family photo reproductions if they choose (best if printed on matte, not glossy photo paper), however they may also select items from the artist’s extensive photo and postcard collection.

Take-home embroidery kits will be provided including stitch template, needle threader, cardboard, embroidery thread, punching needle and embroidery needles.

Consider gifting this to a loved one: the Gift of time with YOU plus learning new skills.

This class is limited to 10 participants


There are no cash refunds, however the price of the class can be used as credit in a future class, either for yourself or a gift to another, credit towards private lessons or a deposit on a custom commission paper garment.
