LAKESHORE ARTS

Spring is here! Join Khadija Aziz for their new Satellite course Stitch & Hang: Embroidered Wall Art

Date and time: Fridays, April 10th to May 22nd
Time: 2 hour sessions, 1 PM to 3 PM
Location: In-person at LAMP Among Friends Location, 2788 Lakeshore Blvd W, Etobicoke

Registration is open from March 27th to April 7th, 2026.

This beginner-friendly course introduces students to essential hand embroidery tools and techniques, including line drawing, 3D flowers, and fabric collage. We’ll begin with spontaneous stitching (stitching without a plan) to explore mark-making, colour, and texture. The series wraps up with a special project: you’ll create your very own quilted wall art piece to be displayed at LAMP! 

Perfect for beginners and experienced embroiderers alike, this series is an opportunity to slow down, learn new skills, and be among friends. 

No experience is required for this course. All materials are provided.
