16 Jan Arwyn Moonrise
Arwyn Moonrise is an embroidery artist with a natural gift for teaching the craft in a fun and practical manner. She learned to embroider during her childhood watching her mother mend and adorn the families clothing on their organic blueberry farm in rural Maine, and reconnected with stitching later in life. Fueled by her passion for creating, recognizing the power of bespoke sacred garments, and wanting to help reduce fashion waste by giving vintage/used clothing new life, she started her custom embroidery business, Township 31 (named after the township in Maine she grew up in).
Arwyn creates one-of-a-kind custom pieces for her clients as a way to create sacred adornment through the art of prayer and storytelling. Her work is executed with technical precision and intricacy. She has been teaching embroidery for the last 13 years all over the Bay Area and truly believes that EVERYONE can tell story and create beauty through stitching.
Arwyn will be teaching Embroidery as Strorytelling.
