About Framed Embroidered Flower Workshop

Embroider and frame your own floral keepsake with textile artist Lucy Freeman.

Learn how to use four simple stitches to embroider your flower, creating your own unique design from the wide variety of templates and colours.

Lucy will also share her innovative framing method, where you cut around the embroidery to float within the frame. At the end of the workshop, you’ll each go home with your own miniature flower, framed and ready to hang on the wall.

All materials are provided.
