This workshop also provides the opportunity to view engaging reproductions from the enormous WisHistory clothing collection, as well as preview newly designed pieces created for the Inspired! Historic Fashions & the Emerging Designers They Influenced event, also in August.
Inspired! Stitch Your Style Fashion Workshop is designed for participants ages 13+. Although this program is tailored for beginner hand sewers and embroiderers, the program is open to and welcomes all skills and abilities.
