{"product_id":"botanical-emboridery","title":"Botanical Emboridery","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe beauty and wonder of flora and fauna have inspired embroidery motifs for thousands of years. From scientifically precise depictions of plant specimens to abstract motifs that delight in shape and color, embroiderers have long interpreted nature to embellish their artworks. Humans understand that plants and fungi offer medicinal and spiritual potential, and have carefully cultivated plants and plant knowledge that enhance wellbeing. Each plant, from the common “weed” to a specimen tree, awaits discovery; and plants can be transformed into teas or tinctures, rendered into dye or stitched design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis botanical embroidery course explores the intersection of art, science, and folklore. Join famed author and artist Arounna Khounnoraj, along with horticulture interpreter Jess Brey, for a three part workshop designed to elevate our stitching through a deep investigation into plant structure and potentials. The class is divided into (1.) Leaves, (2). Flowers and Cones, and (3.) Seeds and their Receptacles. Through these categories you are invited to reimagine plant structures as thread, elaborating an original abstract botanical design by Arounna with your own stitches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStudents will learn 19 stitches, including stem stitch, picot, eyelet, and turkey work. When your artwork is complete, you will know your subjects deeply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis course can be accompanied by a materials kit containing;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"wp-block-list\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn original design by Arounna screen printed onto 18” x 18” linen fabric, with a choice between oatmeal and terracotta\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6 skeins of Tatter’s own thread (naturally-dyed by hand, with plant matter)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA stitching guide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn embroidery hoop and needle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccompanying information about the plant illustrations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWednesday, October 21st, October 28th, and November 4th, 2026\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTime\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e6:00-8:30 pm ET\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLocation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eZoom, a link will be sent to participants the day before class\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCost\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVirtual Class : $165\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVirtual Class with Materials Package: $210 + shipping\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClass Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"wp-block-list\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e18” x 18” linen fabric that is light in color\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEmbroidery hoop (size of your choice)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEmbroidery needle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWater soluble embroidery marker or pattern transfer tool of your choice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEmbroidery thread in an assortment of colors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Tatter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51822685618497,"sku":"EDU_BOTANICAL-EMBROIDERY_KHOUNNORAJ_2026.12.09","price":165.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0678\/3195\/5777\/files\/BOTANICALEMBROIDERYTERRA.jpg?v=1710794884","url":"https:\/\/shop.tatter.org\/products\/botanical-emboridery","provider":"Tatter","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
