Stitched Floral Blooms with Jessica Grady*
In this creative morning workshop you will stitch your own textile garden of beautiful blooms using mixed recycled threads and embellishments. Embroidery artist Jessica Grady will show you a variety of simple hand embroidery stitches, tips and tricks to construct, layer and build your flowers on your background fabric. You will leave the workshop with your stitched floral sample which can be used to create an appliqué panel, framed artwork or even a fabric book cover. Jessica will provide all threads, embellishments and other materials needed for the class, so you will have plenty of choice to stitch your floral blooms.
