Make a special gift for yourself or a mom in your life!

In this class, we will be making hand embroidered shirts or sweatshirts to keep for yourself or gift to a mom in your life for Mother's Day.

Bring your favorite shirt or sweatshirt to personalize with names, initials, or simple shapes.

You will learn a few basic embroidery techniques and stitches with a focus on learning to embroider on clothing. Choose what you want to embroider (mama, grandma, kid names or initials, dates, you choose!) pick from a range of thread colors to embellish your sweatshirt during this hands-on embroidery class.

Supplies: All embroidery supplies will be provided (don't forget your sweatshirt!) and you will walk away with enough embroidery knowledge to keep stitching on clothes.
