Event Details

Join Steph Anderson for a class focused on turning everyday clothing into a personal work of art through embroidery. In this hands-on workshop, we will spend time gathering inspiration, developing an original design, learning embroidery stitches, and exploring ways to thoughtfully place stitching on clothing. Whether you are adding subtle details or creating a bold statement piece, this class is about using embroidery as a form of personal expression. Students will leave with new skills, creative confidence, and a one-of-a-kind garment that reflects their own style and story.  

Stephenie Anderson is a creative fiber and textile artist with a strong background in knitting, embroidery, quilting, and hand sewing of Viking Age textiles. A frequent exhibitor, teacher, and knitting pattern writer, she was awarded an Artist in Residence at the Vesterheim in 2025 where she studied pockets in the Vesterheim Collection. Steph has also been awarded a Viking Connection Grant and studied in Norway where she recreated historically accurate Viking Age garments based on archaeological findings. All of Steph’s textile work is based on heritage, history, and keeping traditions alive.
