Frequently Asked Questions
Where do you teach?
I teach all over the Bay Area CA at different places. You can see where on my website pages about classes. I also do private classes for individuals and groups in the Bay Area CA.
Do you teach online?
No I don’t teach online. There are some really good online resources for instruction already and not many people teaching in-person. I prefer teaching in-person and it’s easier for students to learn with direct interaction. I will do the occasional lecture online.
How do I get on your mailing list?
Write your name and email in the form below and I will add you to my information mailing list. The mailing list is never shared or sold and it’s easy to be removed if you wish. I send out an email occasionally to share new classes or events.
Do you teach other types of embroidery such as needlepoint, goldwork, blackwork, beading, etc?
My specialty is Surface Embroidery meaning it’s not counted. I like to embroider on clothes so I chose to dive deep into the 100’s of embroidery stitches available rather than learn many different embroidery techniques so no I don’t teach other techniques but I am actively looking to expand the in-person embroidery teachers in the area to offer a wider breadth of instruction.
Do you do commissions?
Unfortunately I don’t have time to do commissions but I am actively looking for someone to recommend when the question comes up. I often get requests and would love to find someone to suggest. The request I get the most is usually for weddings. I will do the occasional collaboration with other artists. Collaboration is a great way to stretch as an artist!
How can I arrange a private class or group private class?
Just email me at tandeskeembroidery@gmail.com and we can make arrangements.
