A few words about Anna
Anna is a creative in Melbourne who works out of her home studio making textile-based artworks. You can find her art and follow her creative process on her Instagram account at ‘Lalou and Boo’. While Anna’s creations are predominantly based around the use of fabric, she draws on a variety of material types, embroidery techniques, embellishing materials and even paint/illustration to create her pieces. Her work is often inspired by nature and the world around her (including her four beautiful little girls), and embodies a sense of whimsy, magic and a love for the long-lost slower pace of life.
Liberty and Linen Pincushion workshop
Some of Anna's best known and most beloved creations are her super sweet Liberty and Linen embroidered pincushions - most commonly featuring an embroidered Queen Bee in the centre, surrounded by a garden of tiny Liberty covered hexagons.
Each pincushion Anna makes features linen, embroidery and Liberty London fabrics, used in a variety of ways to create wreath-like motifs. Join Anna for a day to make these divine little pincushions from start to finish, using English paper piecing, applique and embroidery. It is a lovely, achievable little project on which to learn some new skills and add a little beauty to your sewing kit.
Class price includes a kit which contains your hand-drawn Queen Bee embroidery design on a pre-cut and stabilised linen circle, the pincushion base, a little bit of stuffing and hexagon papers.
Additional kits will also be available on the day - perfect for gifting!
It promises to be a gloriously creative day!
The workshop runs from 10am to 3.30 pm and includes lunch. Please advise of any dietary requirements.
