This class is for teens and adults. Join local artist Nikki Ray for the next session in our embroidery workshop series!

This program builds on our introductory class offered in February, but beginners are still welcome to attend. In this workshop, participants will review the basics—such as setting up a hoop and transferring patterns—before moving into more intermediate, technical stitches and intricate design elements.

You’ll continue practicing foundational stitches while also learning decorative favorites like French knots and satin stitch, with opportunities to expand your skills through more detailed patterns. Choose from a variety of designs and begin a piece to take home. This class is part of an ongoing series, with additional embroidery workshops offered throughout the year to continue building your skills.

All materials provided; no experience necessary!
