Modern Monograms and Stitched Text online workshop is back again on June 14 from 10am - 12pm PT/ 1 - 3pm ET/ 7 - 9pm CET! Learn to stitch a traditional monogram and try out some alternative stitches. Learn the history of monograms, how people have “signed” their textiles in folk traditions, and find inspiration in contemporary artists using language and asemic (nonsense) writing in their work!

Photo: My reverse “s”s on cotton and a “t” on organza using a stitch from Indian Chikankari work that you’ll learn in class.
Recording available.
