  • "In mending and making, we mend ourselves" —Deena Beverly In this hand stitching gathering we will honor a memory, ourselves, someone or something else. As we reflect on our subject we may find clarity, understanding and peace of mind. The time provides space to see with fresh eyes of why this came to pass. We will then express our discovery through color, texture and composition, in a figurative or abstract style with thread, appliqué, color and pattern. Come stitch with us. Nothing is like stitching in community with others. It’s fun, healing and grounding. Nancy will teach you the techniques and walk you through the step-by-step process to assist you with creating your work of art!

All the sewing and embroidery is done by hand. It’s a slow stitch process. Prerequisites: Please be able to thread a needle, tie a knot repeatedly and make a basic running stitch. (A bonus if you can backstitch.)

Instructor to bring: The instructor will provide background fabric, fabric scraps, bits and bobs, embroidery floss and threads, basic tools, samples for inspiration and stitch-sample books. *If you don’t need to use any of the instructors supplies … and you have lots of opaque and transparent fabric scraps, embroidery thread, floss and needles… as-well-as a background fabric in linen or vintage cotton approximately 18x18 you can bring and forego paying instructor for materials. Please pack a snack! *Please note: The best fabric is linen, cotton, or something used or vintage. If you want to stitch on knit fabrics (T-shirt type), you can. NO! heavy fabrics like denim as we’ll be layering many pieces together. Athenaeum Music & Arts Library on Instagram and Facebook
