Celebrate your city, commemorate a recent road trip or stitch connections between you and your loved ones. Join artist Robert Mahar in exploring all of the ways you can embroider your area adventures as we embellish a beautiful vintage map of Sonoma County custom printed on a panel of cotton linen canvas. Perfectly suited for beginners, instruction will cover core embroidery basics and essential stitches. However, students with more embroidery experience are encouraged to join for a fun refresher course and the opportunity to apply their skills to a large-format fabric map.
Please note: given the age of this map, some cartographic changes have taken place in the intervening years – however, the county borders and city names remain largely accurate. Cleverly designed with guides, you’ll find it easy to sew finished edges at home or wrap your map around a cork board to pin photos of your friends, family and travels.
