This workshop introduces members to the art of creating wearable patches. In just two hours, you’ll learn how to prepare a preset design to craft an embroidered patch using the Brother SE1900.
Each member will leave with a finished, ready-to-wear patch that can be ironed or sewn onto jackets, bags, or other favorite items.
This hands-on session is beginner-friendly, fun, and designed to spark creativity while offering a tangible keepsake you can show off right away.
This session is open to Maker Space members only.
Meet your instructor: KELLIE TEAL
Kellie Teal has been sewing since she was eight years old, when her grandmother gave her a battery-operated sewing machine and access to a treasured scrap box. She began by making (very primitive!) Barbie clothes for herself and her sister, but even then, their dolls had custom style.
Over the years, Kellie has sewn just about everything imaginable, from golf bags and evening wear to lingerie and everyday alterations. Her specialty and favorite work is gown alterations, particularly bridal and prom dresses. She loves the moment a client looks in the mirror and sees a dress that fits perfectly. That smile is the best part.
Kellie has likely altered enough bridal and prom gowns to fill a dump truck and takes pride in helping people feel confident and beautiful for life’s biggest moments.
A MadJax member, Kellie is passionate about sharing her talents and helping keep sewing alive as both a practical skill and creative art form. She especially enjoys transforming something old into something new, whether that means tailoring a garment for a flawless fit or completely reimagining it into something entirely different.
