Folk Art Stitching

Catherine Redford

March 19, 2025

9aM - 4PM

Trini Mendenhall Community Center

1414 Wirt Road/Houston, TX 77055


A fun day of stitching. We’ll start by learning or being reminded of some favorite embroidery stitches on a specially designed pre-printed sampler. Then add to the fun with some novel embellishment techniques. Look through the stitch guide and try some more difficult stitches. Learn how Catherine chooses, resizes and transfers her own designs onto dark-colored backgrounds. Get ready to start your next stitchery project.

Bonus: Dorset button-making is a traditional English craft experiencing a resurgence. We’ll make a Blandford Cartwheel to finish out our time together.

Enjoy the relaxed tempo and reconnect with hand work.

Supply List: $50 Mandatory Kit Fee which includes EVERYTHING you need (includes printed sampler, hand dyed embroidery threads, needles, embellishments, notions, full color stitch guide, and all supplies needed for making one button), all you need to bring is a pair of small scissors. Optional to bring a small task light if desired.

Please pay the instructor for the kit.  Price of workshop DOES NOT include kit fee
