About this class
This workshop is perfect for anyone who wants to upcycle their own clothes beautifully and sustainably. I will help you learn how to embellish your clothes and/or accessories with needle and thread and make them unique.
In this course, you'll learn:
- What are the best pieces of clothing to embroider
- Clamping the embroidery frame
- How to handle embroidery stickers
- 3 embroidery stitches for floral designs
- 2 embroidery stitches for motifs
- Finalize your embroidery, washing & cleaning tips
The workshop takes place here:
My small studio is located right on Friedenplätzchen near Lorettostraße in Düsseldorf Unterbilk. A really beautiful, urban area, which is also very worthwhile for browsing and shopping in the numerous owner-managed shops & boutiques. You can reach me in the backyard of Friedenstraße 36 - the house with the blue front door.
How to get there by train:
There are two stops in the immediate vicinity of the studio. This includes the Kronprinzenstraße stop, 300 meters away (here line 707 goes to Düsseldorf Central Station in a few minutes) and the Bilker Kirche stop, 400 meters away (the 709 goes to Neuss, the main station, etc.)
How to get there by car:
Enter the above address into the navigation system and off you go. There are plenty of parking spaces available, but you might have to search for them for a few minutes, so plan an extra 10 minutes. During the week, you have to get a parking ticket, and parking is free on weekends.
