Unicorn Fantasy Landscape Pincushion
with Deborah Fisher
Join Deborah for a truly magical workshop where you’ll create your own Fantasy Landscape Pincushion atop a handmade ceramic unicorn base with a gold luster horn from Fish Museum and Circus. In this hands-on class, you’ll design and build a three-dimensional topographical scene — crafting trees, rainbows, hills, grasses, clouds, and other imaginative landscape elements using a variety of materials. Along the way, you’ll learn simple embroidery stitches to add texture and detail to your creation. By the end of the workshop, you’ll leave with a one-of-a-kind whimsical pincushion and a collection of new skills to inspire future projects.
