Have you ever wanted to create your own embroidery designs to bring your ideas to life? Now you can! Discover the world of machine embroidery in our new embroidery / sewing class using Inkscape and Ink/Stitch. Throughout the workshop, you’ll learn the ins and outs of Inkscape, a free vector-based drawing program, and Ink/Stitch, a powerful extension designed for machine embroidery.
