Beginner's Hand Embroidery Workshop: Dinosaur Design *

Artist Aimee Ray will go over the basics of hand embroidery, covering supplies, techniques and a variety of stitches that you can use to embellish clothing, bags, other craft projects, or artwork.

We will practice with provided needle, floss, fabric and embroidery hoops. Develop an easy, relaxing and versatile hobby! To fit with the summer reading theme Unearth A Story, the embroidery project will have a dinosaur design.
