Embroidery with the MFA

Summer is here and it’s tote bag season! Join us this month as we explore the world of embroidery. We’ll view a collection of delightful artwork that features embroidery at the Museum of Fine Arts and then we’ll embroider a beautiful design on our very own tote bags! This project will work well for those who are beginners and those who are experienced with embroidery. Bedazzle your day with a beautiful embroidery tote bag made by you.
