Description
WORKSHOP: Stitch Happens
1:00pm – 5:00pm | Brendalee Astells
Brendalee is a curious soul who finds joy in creativity and play, inviting others to delight in making and finishing their own creations.
Ready to flirt with your creativity? Slow stitching lets patience lead, perfection nap, and inspiration creep in stitch by stitch. Bring scissors, imagination, and curiosity. Make a brooch, break a few rules, and delight in the meditative, playful joy of creating your own way.
BRING: Fabric scissors, and reading glasses if required for the class description. Participants are welcome to bring their own choice of fabrics or other embellishments, in addition to what will be provided.
