Altar Cloth Embroidery Workshop

Join Casa de Ritual owner, Yvonne and guest teacher Erin Eggenburg for this special hands-on making workshop where you'll learn about setting up an altar, creating rituals, and the symbolisms and elements associated with this magical practice.

You'll design an altar cloth tailored to your personal style with crafter and educator Erin Eggenburg of Wren Bird Mends. Erin will teach you to embroider several kinds of stitches and how to incorporate appliqué into your designs. There will be beads, sequins, fabric scraps and embroidery threads to customize each altar cloth.

Sips, snacks will be provided. Space is limited.
