Indigo, Embroidered: A Workshop
Description
In this hands-on workshop, participants will learn a range of embroidery techniques and make an embroidered, indigo-dyed napkin project that they can take home. Textile artist Catherine Murphy will provide an illustrated overview of some of the indigo projects found throughout Making Home—Smithsonian Design Triennial, and demonstrate several basic embroidery techniques. Participants will then select an object or detail to work into their own napkin design from the Underground Library installation, a welcoming, interactive space for visitors to Making Home where custom-designed seating, textiles, and carpeting by BADG members and collaborators honor their ancestral legacies in art and design. No embroidery skills are required, and all materials are provided. Murphy will provide technical and design assistance throughout the workshop.
