Embroidered Stories
Event by: Palmarin Merges
Location: Textile Hive, Southwest 2nd Avenue 133, Portland
About event
Share stories & begin an embroidered journal on clothing left to us by important women in our lives.
All are welcome to tell their story and bring an item of clothing to embroider text, thoughts, and images upon. Embroidered Stories is akin to a sewing bee or stitching circle where we build community by sharing the stories of important women/female figures in our lives.
Participants should look upon this as an opportunity to connect with other like-minded individuals. Artist Palmarin Merges will teach beginners at least 3 embroidery stitches. There will also be the opportunity to collage onto the item of clothing with scrap fabrics as part of the cloth journaling experience.
