Come along for a slow-stitching adventure and virtual self-paced workshop that you can enjoy from your own home.
Inviting you to join this new workshop for a virtual stitch getaway that evokes the happy days of an old-fashioned summer. Making blueberry muffins in gramma’s kitchen, tending flower and vegetable gardens, playing at the seashore, discovering a rabbit in his secret den, arranging flowers for a summer day. We will be making this sweet book about summer with fabric and thread. It is the third book/workshop in a popular seasonal series.
Open to all skill levels, the workshop is a perfect way to grow your stitch love with fabric, thread and the joy of handmade!
The Kit
I'll send you a one-of-a-kind kit, full of vintage and new fabrics I have collected or designed and textiles I've dyed or felted by hand here in my Vermont studio. I assemble each kit personally and include almost everything you need to complete the project.

Linen and muslin foundation fabrics
Printed fabric panel of my images and icons
Embroidery design panel with coordinating threads
Vintage fabrics and trims
Vintage quilt pieces
New and handfelted wool felts
New cotton fabrics
Patterns, photos and instructions
Videos teach:
Building the two covers and four double page spreads inside
Using and altering the kit materials
Transferring photos and imagery to fabric
Assembling the book
Stitching and finishing
(Videos can be watched whenever it suits you, as often as you wish without expiration.)
The Facebook Group
Optional- You’ll be invited to join a private Facebook Group where you can post your work, see what others are doing and generally be inspired by the supportive comments from other makers. It’s a lovely way to share and feel connected to the group. I will be there too. We’ve built a welcoming community of stitching friends there!
Zoom Meet-ups
Optional- We'll get together in small groups on Zoom to talk about your creation and to share it with other members. I'll show you how to modify the design for extra bonus projects to make the best use of your materials and creativity.
