Snowdrop Embroidery Workshop at Sarah P. Duke Gardens


Come stitch with me for this Snowdrop Workshop hosted by @sarahpdukegardens !

Held February 6 and 13 from 9:30am-12:30pm EST via Zoom.

Snowdrops are often a signal that winter is waning. Author Mandy Kirby describes snowdrops as a flower of consolation and hope, saying “I am come to calm your fears; to console you in the absence of bright days and to reassure you of their return.”

Using this dainty flower, Kat will introduce several embroidery techniques, including split stitch, burden stitch, stem stitch, chain stitch and padded satin stitch. Your finished piece will be a 4”x6” motif stitched in crewel wools on linen.
