“Botanical Alphabet” – Stickworkshop mit Adriana Torres (Miga de Pan)
(Englisch)
“This workshop will explore Adriana’s own design of hand embroidery A-Z floral lettering.
In this personalized workshop each student will learn the stitches from the sampler that she or he likes the most. From the most popular to the most difficult and unknown. They also will learn to combine different thicknesses and amounts of strands according to each stitch. This way of working gives to the embroidery an aesthetic rich in textures and a strong aspect of simplicity, which is the style that characterizes the work of Adriana.
Not only they’ll learn all the tricks of Adriana, from how to thread the needle to how to embroider knotless, which stitches go better with wool or cotton, but the students will work on a previously silkscreened fabric, which makes the task much more pleasant.
Each workshop is a complete class and is suitable for all, from beginners to experienced stitchers who wish to take their needlework to the next level.” (Adriana Torres)
