Embroiderers Guild, Victoria - Mildura Branch

Welcome to The Embroiderers Guild, Victoria - Mildura Branch. We love embroidery, textiles and fibre arts that are both traditional and contemporary 🧡

We enjoy sitting and sewing together, using a variety of fabrics and threads to create a diverse range of functional products or artworks. Learning new and old techniques and designs taught by local, national and international tutors is exciting for us. Summer School in January is popular, with recent themes being 3D Insects, Buttons and Gourds 🦋

It's important to us that everyone feels a sense of belonging, value and support. 'Being part of a community can have a positive effect on mental health and emotional wellbeing. Community involvement provides a sense of belonging and social connectedness. It can also offer extra meaning and purpose to everyday life.' https://www.headtohealth.gov.au/meaningful-life/connectedness/community

We have lovely, caring friendships and are known for our warm welcomes and inclusiveness. 🌼

We come and go as it suits us on our sewing days, Wednesdays and Fridays and we often get together on Saturdays 10am-2pm and Sundays 1-4pm. Notification is via newsletters. One of the things we’re proud of is the publication of 10 books of our embroideries, so we have much to show and inspire newcomers. Whether a beginner or experienced stitcher, we meet you wherever you are on your stitching journey. Pop in to say 'Hello' 😊
