About
Explore South Asian mirror embroidery techniques and learn to adorn textiles with glass mirrors! In this beginner-friendly workshop, students will learn about the origins of mirror embroidery and decorate cloth with shimmering glass mirrors and beautiful thread. Students can apply the skills learned in this workshop to future embroidery projects, such as hoop art and garment embellishment. All materials and supplies are included, but students are welcome to bring along personal garments, tote bags or fabrics to personalize their wardrobes.
