Join artist Robert Mahar in creating a charming set of embroidered souvenir postcards that include some of Robert's favorite Sonoma County destinations. Instruction will guide participants through best practices for stitching on paper, including the transfer of imagery and patterns, and clever finishing techniques. The resulting set can be displayed as reminders of actual or imaginary adventures, or sent to loved ones as deliverable mail art.
This workshop explores various traditional techniques while embracing a more freeform approach to embroidery. Participants will have the opportunity to stitch paper in a fun and unique way, choosing their own palette, design, and stitch placements. This is a project well suited for everyone, no previous experience is necessary.
