Clothing Embellishment: Embroidery w/ Mary Lee

With just a few basic embroidery stitches, you can turn a plain shirt, jean jacket, or pair of jeans into a unique work of art. Use your own intuitive design, or learn ways to transfer a design to your clothing.

Session one: We’ll explore ideas and learn methods to transfer ideas to the clothing. We’ll practice a few basic stitches (running stitch, back stitch, chain stitch, French knots) and you’ll get started on your embellishment. (3 hours)
Session two: Share your progress, get help with problem-solving, and keep working on your masterpiece (2 hours)
