Field Trip Society: Embroidery for the VOTE

Exercise your freedom of expression and voting rights in this fun, hands-on workshop and happy hour. Field trippers will learn basic stitching techniques to create their own ‘get out the vote’ t-shirt, sweatshirt or badge.. Guests will enjoy a glass of wine while stitching – with selections chose from women winemakers (oh yes, she can!).

Proceeds from the night will benefit Fair Fight, champions of free and fair elections. Bring your own t-shirt, sweatshirt or clothing item. All other supplies provided, no prior experience necessary.

Kansas City-based artist Aimee Hagedorn is thrilled to return to Seattle for this one night workshop. Aimee took her first sewing class at 8 years old to make clothes for her Barbie dolls, sparking a lifelong passion for creating beauty with fabric and thread. When she is not dreaming up ideas for her signature embroidered heart patches, she works as the library clerk at her local elementary school. Aimee’s work can be found both online and in retail stores in Seattle (at the divine Orcas Paley), Aspen, and Kansas City.
