The Art of Machine Embroidery

Between our past two exhibitions a very special class finished up. The Art of Machine Embroidery is a class that began last January and we’ve had a wonderful three sessions. The students have had an incredible time further exploring machine embroidery and implementing techniques to translate their inspirations into art. Here are a few pictures from class and some of their work which I’m excited to share with you.
