    Electric Embroidery Tuesday

    December 13th 2011 and January 3rd 2012, 5:30-8:30pm
    This workshop is not open to the public, but will be held as part of One Love Generation‘s mentoring sessions in Atlanta, GA.

    The aim of this workshop is to explore embroidery as a contemporary medium, in terms of both content and material. Participants will use conductive thread to embroider and “illuminate” personally meaningful sayings, slogans, phases and imagery.
