Past Workshops
Craft-fullness Retreat Nov 7 - 11, 2024
Charleston, South Carolina
I will be teaching at an upcoming creative retreat in Kiawah Island (just outside of Charleston, North Carolina) in November! Craft-fullness Retreat takes place November 7 to 11, 2024 in a beautiful beach house and it will be a long weekend of crafting, gallery visits, yoga, and mindfulness. I find the act of making something with your hands to be so therapeutic and satisfying, and creative self-care has been personally so important to me. I will be teaching sashiko, a traditional Japanese sewing method, and I cannot wait for this wonderful weekend!I'm thrilled to be working with Daisy McClellan again - some of you may remember that her and I collaborated on a couple of clothing lines back in San Francisco for her boutique, gather!
Space is limited to 10 participants, so don't dilly dally :) Sign up here.
