In this fiber art workshop, we’ll create our own colorful, textured, embroidery garden. Artist Mallory Zondag will teach us a variety of embroidery stitches that can be used to create everything from stems and leaves to hydrangeas, roses, daisies, and even fringe moss! No experience required. All materials included in the cost. Students will leave with a 6″ hoop, assorted embroidery threads, and an embroidery needle to be able to continue their project on their own time.We’ll have a few historical embroidery pieces from our collection on display for inspiration!
About the artist/instructor:
Mallory Zondag is a mixed-media fiber artist and artist educator. Her experience with textiles while in art school led her to create both independent and community sculpture through a variety of fiber art mediums. She explores deeply personal and connective universal stories through the meditative and hands-on practices of wet felting, weaving, sculpting, and stitching, seeking to bring the ephemeral into physical being. The growth and decay of the natural world, the duality of discomfort and attraction we feel towards it, and humanity’s place within this dichotomy informs her dimensional textures and sculptural pieces.
