Stitching the Desert Class Description:
High reaching ridges of saguaro cacti. Hot sun warming expanses of sand. Prickly pear dotted with crimson blooms. Translate images of the desert into an original work of embroidery. In this workshop, students will embroider their own desert landscapes, choosing between two offered embroidery patterns.
Class will include an overview of embroidery techniques: selecting materials, pattern making, preparing your hoop, and “painting” with thread using the satin stitch. Creativity in color selection, stitching, and following your instinct is highly encouraged with guidance from the instructor. This workshop is beginner-friendly, but all levels are welcome. Embroidery takes time and shouldn’t be rushed. Students are encouraged to take time outside of class to finish and add final details.
