Botanical Embroidery - Outdoor Edition
There will be two cross-stitching workshops in The New Haberdashery, one for adults and one for children. The adults can make a beautifully cross-stitched corsage with embroidery thread and special haberdasheries. The children can draw with needle and thread. If the weather is good, participants will work in The New Garden where the plentiful array of plants and flowers forms a source of inspiration.
