Description
In this hands-on workshop, students will begin by imagining their own cuddly creature and capturing it in a colorful, whimsical drawing. Next, we’ll bring that creature to life through embroidery, needle felting, and sewing, finishing with a stuffed, huggable creation. Students are encouraged to develop a story and personality for their creature, making it truly unique. Materials include wool felt, wool roving, embroidery threads, and assorted notions.
Objective: Skill Development, Creativity Enhancement
Outcome: Creation of Artwork, Inspiration and Creativity
Instructor

After studying textiles at the Rhode Island School of Design, Alyssa Brieanne started an embroidery and textile studio. All designs begin with a hand-drawn image or painting that is then translated into embroidery. Each piece is a unique color and material investigation, incorporating textures and embellishments. Her work is whimsical, colorful, and playful. She is inspired by folk art and vintage textiles.
