WORKSHOP: Embroidering a Landscape (Code AL1)
DESCRIPTION:
If you are looking for an embroidery challenge that includes expert guidance, and want to extend your embroidery skills, then this is the workshop for you. Anna will first meet with workshop participants to discuss the landscape you have chosen for this project, and the materials you will need.
The three workshop days are spread out so that you will have time to practice what you have learned, and to get ready for the next steps. Anna’s sample landscape is at www.bribieartcentre.com and follow the links to the Festival, and then to Anna’s page under workshops – but the landscape you create will be your own of your own choosing.
Open to all with knowledge of and confidence in basic embroidery techniques.
