Description 

"Embroidery traditionally has been] regarded as women’s work and the teaching of embroidery as a means of preparing young women for domesticity." Well we say, f*** that s***. Embroider as art; embroider because it's fun; embroider because you want to embroider.

Join Madeline, our resident subversive embroiderer, to learn embroidery basics. First we'll practice stitching, and then you'll embroider your own piece, with one-on-one assistance from Madeline as needed.

  • receive classroom and one-on-one instruction as needed
  • leave with your finished art, or at least a started embroidery piece and the skills and tools you need to finish!

All materials provided (and snacks, of course!). No experience necessary.
