Embroider a Personal Patch

Workshop Details

Join Nikki Bose, a trained Jungian Life coach, for this creative embroidery workshop. In this class participants will be lead through a visualization (like a meditation) to gain a message from our unconscious mind. You will be shown how to create an embroidered patch to bring this symbol or message to life. There will be opportunities to share and discuss what came up for you in the visualization. Basic embroidery or sewing skills would be helpful, but are not necessary. Often we are given symbols in dreams or throughout the day that we may not understand. Yet, somehow we know there is meaning to them. Creating a personalized patch can help you keep the symbol with you and remind you to work with it and tease apart its message. This project is based off of the work of Christi Johnson, you can find more about her work here https://www.mixedcolor.net/, I will bring her book to the workshop for people to get inspiration from. “Clothing acts as a barrier between us and the world, able to protect as well as express our physical beings, and can be used to protect or express our energetic bodies as well. By infusing a garment with a purpose (in this case by embedding a patch of intentional artwork into it) you're able to declare your ambitions out into the world loud and clear”. - Christi Johnson Instructor will supply • Iron on interfacing • Embroidery floss • Iron • Pins • Fabric You will need to bring • Embroidery hoop • Embroidery needles • Embroidery floss, only if you already have some • Fabric (or object) if you already have some you want to use • Basic embroider skills are ideal but not a must • Journal/paper and a pen to record what comes up for you Date: July 23 Time: 10 - 2 Location: Guild Rom 204 at RCA Guild Members use Coupon Code FIBREART2021 at checkout for $10 off this workshop.
