Only 3 available

Find your creative inspiration in the natural beauty of the South Street Gardens greenhouse! Our winterized greenhouse offers a cozy, plant-filled setting to unplug, slow down, and enjoy a little creative time for yourself.

Join us for a fresh take on a timeless craft in this relaxed, welcoming embroidery workshop—perfect for beginners and anyone looking to try something new.Think embroidery is just for pristine pillowcases and stiff samplers? Think again! We’re taking this heritage craft and giving it the Sharp & Social upgrade.

Whether you haven’t held a needle since Home Ec class or you’re just looking for a creative escape from your screens, this workshop is your perfect starting point for a more intentional home.

The Project:

In this 2-hour session, we will guide you through a relaxed, modern introduction to hand embroidery. We’ll be stitching a gratitude inspired project. This design will teach you the how tos just in time for Thanksgiving! 

What We’ll Cover:

We provide everything you need to go from a blank piece of fabric to a finished piece of art.

  •  The Foundations: How to properly "dress" your hoop, transfer patterns to fine linens, and prep your floss for a professional, snag-free finish.

  •  The Library of Stitches: You’ll master the Backstitch, Whipped Back Stitch, Satin Stitch, and the French Knot—the essential building blocks for elegant, floral designs

Your ticket includes a full beginner kit designed to help you finish your set:

  •  The fabric for your project

  •  A reusable wooden embroidery hoop

  •  A curated palette of premium embroidery floss & needles

  •  A needle minder and an instructional guide with patterns to complete your project 

The Vibe

We provide the supplies, the guidance, and the atmosphere—you just provide the hands.

  •  Flying Solo? Please do! Many of our attendees come on their own to meet new friends, though stitching with a bestie is always welcome, too.

  • Adults & teens 16+ with a ticked adult are welcome to register.

Arrive Early & Enjoy the Gardens! Doors open 30 minutes before the workshop begins, giving you plenty of time to settle in, browse, and get inspired. As a thank-you for joining us, workshop participants receive 15% off purchases in our Home & Gift Store and Nursery on the day of the event.

Who We Are: Our Philosophy

At Sharp & Social, we believe that making things with your hands is good for the brain, but making them with friends is good for the soul. In a world that is increasingly digital and disconnected, we wanted to build a space where creativity and community intersect.

We founded this club on a simple premise: we all need a place to disconnect from our screens and reconnect with each other. Whether you are here to master a complex stitch, find a moment of quiet on a Saturday morning, or simply have a laugh while your hands are busy, you have a seat at our table.

We take our craft seriously, but never ourselves. Come get sharp with us.
