There’s a delightful surprise element to marblin There’s a delightful surprise element to marbling. ✨ Despite best efforts to manipulate inks on the surface of a water bath, you’re never quite certain if the final print will resemble a pastel topographical map, the cross-section of a pyschedelic tree trunk or imagery from a candy-colored fever dream. 

A new session of Japanese Paper & Fabric Marbling has just been added to the @m.lovewell workshop calendar for Saturday, October 14. This day of creative classes will be my only teaching engagement in Southern CA this fall! Seated will be limited in M.Lovewell’s beautiful Santa Ana classroom, insuring everyone has room to comfortably create. The magical link in my bio contains all the details! 🩵
Guess who spent part of a day making little needle Guess who spent part of a day making little needle books for upcoming embroidery workshop students? 🙋‍♂️😆 I work hard to create thoughtful material kits that make you feel anticipated and well taken care of. These include a variety of threaded needles, a new threader and the cutest (and sharpest!) tiny snips all housed in the folds of a sewn wool blend felt booklet. ✨🪡✨

Over the next couple of months I'm teaching in: Waco, TX; Alameda, CA; Nashville, TN; and Sonoma, CA! 😅 Follow the link in my bio to see the full itinerary. ❤️
Double, double stitching trouble; needle gleam an Double, double stitching trouble; needle gleam and cauldron bubble!* On Saturday, October 14th, Eerie Embroidery is happening at @m.lovewell in Santa Ana, CA. Join me, Robert Mahar, as we re-imagine some of of my favorite haunting vintage photographs printed on fabric and transform them with embroidery. ✨ Learn how to add costuming, props and a little bit of magic to classic black and white images in this beginner-friendly (and experienced welcome!) workshop. Head on over to the mlovewell.com workshops page or follow the link in my bio for complete registration information!

*With apologies to Shakespeare for taking artistic license. 😬🤪
Doing my best to appear patient while I wait for t Doing my best to appear patient while I wait for the results of late summer clippings that have gone into my flower press. 😜🌼 In the meantime, I am preparing material kits for my October 8 workshop at the @sonomacommunitycenter.

We'll be constructing small scale wood & paper flower presses, and creating  imaginative works on paper (suitable for stationery or framing!) using gorgeous pre-pressed flowers from @greetingsofgrace. ✨The Sonoma Community Center offers tiered registration pricing and scholarships to make workshops more accessible to more folks.✨ Join us! You find a link in my bio with all the information you need to sign up. ❤️
Wishing you a restful weekend my friends. ❤️ Wishing you a restful weekend my friends. ❤️
Nashville! It’s back-to-school season and I am h Nashville! It’s back-to-school season and I am headed to @belmontu this October. In partnership with @watkinscollege and @watkinscommunityeducation I’m teaching two special special full day sessions of my Embroidered U.S. Map Workshop: Stitches and Storytelling. 🪡🗺️ Follow the link in my bio for complete info and registration.

TEACHERS WORKSHOP: On Friday, October 27 I’m so delighted to offer a grant funded program, ✨free of charge, for school teachers only✨. Introduce your students to fiber arts as a medium and unique way to express personal identity and narrative. Because of the dexterity skills involved, this project would be best suited for upper grade levels.

PUBLIC WORKSHOP: On Saturday, October 28 we’re opening the doors of Belmont’s Leu Center for Visual Arts to everyone ages 18+. Learn a unique approach to needlework and stitch your own story onto a beautiful 1906 map of the contiguous United States custom printed on a half yard (27” x 36”) of linen cotton canvas.
