embroider your dream barbie

In this workshop we will explore the world of Barbie  and her friends  decide what to dress her in including  accessories and/or should she be positioned with a dream house  background.

Once an image has been worked
up  we will transfer her onto suitable retro fabric and using simple stitches create a frame worthy image to keep .
