A 2-hour beginner-friendly workshop on Shisha Embroidery. Using the materials provided participants will leave with the embroidery skills necessary to produce beautiful mirrorwork embroideries.

Shisha Embroidery, also known as mirror work embroidery has been widely used throughout Southwestern Asia and on the Indian subcontinent. The Shisha Embroidery technique is a type of adornment that affixes mirrors to fabric through a variety of stitches. This technique is applicable on many fabrics such as cotton, silk, chiffon, and many more which can then be turned into attractive apparel and accessories ranging from sarees-blouse to cushions, covers, belts, and purses.
