Friday Temari Embroidery with Heather Evert – $35.00

Registration is closed

Friday, September 30

6:00 - 9:00 PM

Fee: $35

Temari is a decorative folk art from Japan, used in the past to make toys. Nowadays, Temari is used not only for toys, but for beautiful gifts and decorations.

Participants in this BYOB (Bring Your Own Beverage) workshop will receive a partially finished Temari ball to finish wrapping with thread. After marking the wrapped ball with stitching guidelines, each person will begin to stitch their chosen pattern. Instructor Heather Evert will demonstrate several types of embroidery stitches, as well as three methods of designing further Temari patterns at home. Heather is certified by the Japan Temari Association.

Note: As this is a BYOB workshop, participants must be 21+ to attend.
