Beginner's Embroidery Class // July 8, 2017

Embroidery is such a great portable year-round hobby to learn! You can just as well enjoy it with a nice glass of chilled rosé on a sunny patio as you can while sipping on a hot tea on a rainy day on the couch watching some Netflix. And of course, stitching in the company of new friends at an Assembly workshop is fun too. :) Welcome to your new favorite hobby!

Our sold out embroidery class in Portland was full of tough decisions… flowers or night sky? Some students chose both and took kits home!

During class, Liz shared information about the basics of embroidery and all about topics such as hoops, needles, and fabric. The next step was practicing a variety of stitches and then, when ready, everyone jumped into the final designs and started work on their masterpieces.

Embroidery 101 Class // January 28, 2017

The first class held at our new Portland space, Shout House, was truly fantastic! During Embroidery 101, students learned the basic techniques of embroidery in a modern, approachable way that was relaxing and fun! The 30 students who attended (sold out!) were able to receive hands-on instruction from Assembly's first guest teaching artist, Megan Eckman of Studio MME. Megan had students use three basic stitches to sew up a Mount Hood scene and everyone left the class with a little piece of Oregon ready to hang on their wall. Did we mention there were complimentary refreshments involved? A special thanks to Megan for doing a wonderful job!
