MMFA x Les Affûtés: Learn to embroider

Are you looking for a soothing and relaxing activity that you can do anywhere? Discover the ancestral art of fabric decoration known as embroidery. 

In this three-hour workshop, you’ll discover the basics of embroidery while making a colorful design. You’ll learn line stitches such as the backstitch, stem stitch and chain stitch, as well as filling stitches such as the passé-plat, throw stitch and knot stitch.

We’ll use a variety of stencils to create original, personalized designs. If you wish, you can bring your own design, as long as it fits within a circle with a diameter of 15 cm (6″).
