We will learn various kinds of filling stitches while embroidering fabrics with dachshunds. We'll treat embroidery like coloring — instead of crayons we'll use needles and threads.
You will receive many practical tips and learn 5–6 versatile stitches that will let you fill any shape with embroidery afterwards.
Besides learning stitches, I also care about conversation and meeting: your meeting with me, participants with each other, your hand with your head, thread with fabric — we'll chat like in a city homemakers' circle.
The result of our work will be an embroidered hoop with dachshunds that you can hang on the wall or give to someone close.
📅 Friday, February 6, 18:00–21:00
📍 Warsaw, Oho Pracownia, ul. Dickensa 10
💰 Cost: 220 PLN. The workshop price includes a take-home embroidery kit (needle, hoop, threads, printed fabrics, magnetic frames for hanging the embroidery, protective envelope, pins).

Who is it for:
Instructor:
For me, embroidery is hand yoga, a kind of moving meditation. It is also a form of contemporary activism, analog guerrilla. We live in a world of productivity compulsion, where efficiency and speed matter more than precision and deeper understanding. I love embroidery for its slow pace, for teaching patience and focus, which through its physicality and tangibility gives an immediate sense of agency. I believe that its subversive potential of gentleness and empathy is what we need now.
