Workshop: Spring in Bloom (Gerbera Edition)

In this beginner-friendly, in-person workshop, we’ll guide you through the mindful process of hand embroidery, creating a vibrant and detailed Gerbera flower design. You’ll learn essential stitches and color-blending techniques to bring the bold petals and intricate center of this cheerful bloom to life.

Throughout the afternoon, we will focus on the art of hoop embroidery. You’ll learn how to compose your design within a classic wooden hoop, creating a beautiful piece of textile art that is ready to hang on your wall or give as a thoughtful, handmade gift. It’s the perfect way to celebrate the arrival of spring and bring a permanent pop of botanical color into your space.

This workshop is designed to be a relaxing escape from the bustle of the city. No previous embroidery experience is required—just a willingness to pause, learn, and create. Come on your own or bring a friend for a memorable afternoon of stitching and connection.

• Foundational stitches perfect for creating the layered, textured petals of a Gerbera.

• The "thread painting" technique to blend vibrant spring hues and create a realistic look.
