CLASS - AB46 Silk and Velvet Flower Brooches

AB46 Silk and Velvet Flower Brooches 

Anna is a Melbourne-based textile artist who works from her home studio creating whimsical, nature-inspired pieces under the name Anna Victoria. Her work blends fabric, embroidery, embellishment and illustration, with a focus on mindful hand-stitching and a deep love of the creative process.

In this workshop, Anna will guide you through making a stunning botanical brooch using silk, velvet, wire and beads. She will teach you an array of clever but simple techniques to create volume, depth of colour and texture in your piece. The end result is a soft and sculptural rose bloom brooch – inspired by old-world florals but with a fresh, contemporary feel.

You’ll learn how to shape and stitch petals, embellish with beads, add embroidery and sculpt leaves with wirework so your piece has gentle movement, texture and life. This workshop is suitable for all levels, and a wonderful opportunity to see how even simple techniques can be used in new ways to craft an organic piece of gorgeous wearable art.

*Please note photographs show examples of the brooch in various colourways, which may be different to the colours available in the kits on workshop day. This is due to the hand-dyed nature of the materials Anna works with, however there will be several different colours available for you to choose from to cater to different preferences.*
