About                                      

Come and join Sera for an afternoon of experimental embroidery sampling.  

Samplers, before they became ‘embroidery exercises’, were places to innovatively develop stitching knowledge and possibilities. In this workshop participants will begin their sampler based upon finding and responding to patterns in and around Sauerbier House. Throughout the workshop we will experiment with common embroidery stitches, reawakening samplers as a site to practice, document our times and places, and play with the many thousands stitched possibilities.

• Some basic embroidery experience necessary.
• BYO fabric on which to stitch your sampler.
• Sera can provide hoops, a range of threads, scissors, needles, washable markers, reference texts/embroidery guides for the duration of the workshop.  If you have your own hoop and favourite threads and materials, please bring them with you.  
• Best suit folks 18+
• Afternoon refreshments included
