Workshop participants at Irene Manion’s machine embroidery workshop enjoyed themselves immensely! Irene lead the group in making “a botanical collection”. And yes, participants went home with gorgeous individual bouquets of machine embroidered flowers and leaves. More importantly everybody, from the newbies to the most experienced maker, had fun expanding their free motion embroidery skills and learning new techniques. You can see images from the day in our gallery.
