Event Description:
For a brief time in the 17th century, there flourished a fantastic and charming form of embroidery that still inspires textile artists today – stumpwork, or raised embroidery. This style of work is characterized by heavily stitched surfaces with three-dimensional elements that were fashioned into useful household items such as boxes and mirror frames. This course is a wonderful opportunity to learn about using stumpwork in contemporary creations.
