“Hand Embroidery Basics and Implementing Them on Clothing” – with Stefanija Pejchinovska (Damaja)
“Through learning the basic hand embroidery techniques you will be able to refresh your old clothes instead of throwing them away or sending them to thrift stores and buying new. This can be your new craft to contribute in the ZERO WASTE movement.
Embroidery is a meditative technique. Come and have a nice and inspiring afternoon. Embrace your creativity. Relеаse all your thoughts, let your brain completely relax and allow your intuition to contribute in every string you take.” (Damaja/Stefanija Pejchinovska)
