Cultural Workshop: Year of the Dragon Stitched Postcard with Judilee Fitzhugh
Portland Japanese Garden is partnering with textile artisan, Judilee Fitzhugh, to provide a one-day workshop that will have its participants make a charming stitched postcard in honor of the Year of the Dragon. Soar into the new year or make a treasured holiday gift with this Japan-inspired textile project!
According to folklore, those born under the Year of the Dragon are ambitious, confident, and seen as natural-born leaders. Capture the imagery of the powerful dragon by “painting” with layers of fabric and a variety of hand embroidery stitches in this meditative workshop. Students will leave with a large postcard-sized (5″x 7″) textile appropriate for display or gifting for the New Year.
This workshop will run from 9:30am-4:00pm, which includes 6 hours of instruction and a 30-minute lunch break. Participation is limited to 20 students. The workshop is open to students of all levels of sewing abilities.
All tools and materials are included in the workshop fee. Coffee, tea, water, and light snacks will be served. Students should bring their own lunch and a water bottle. Students may bring a small sewing kit if desired.
