Contemporary Embroidery
Youth Summer Camp | Registration opens 1/22/2025 9:00 AM EST
We'll learn basic embroidery stitches (including back stitch, running stitch, and more), and express ourselves by stitching words and pictures with thread and fabric. We'll also see how to design our own pieces, to create a one-of-a-kind piece. Lots of bright colors, lots of opportunities for self expression!
