Chicagoland Textile Events

Stitched in Color
Join artist-in-residence Dail Williams at Kimball Arts Center for a colorful, reflective afternoon of stitching, storytelling, and creative reuse. Inspired by your own printed photo, you’ll build a personal color palette and learn a simple hand-sewing technique from Daliah Silver of the newly established Chicago Textile Center. Together, you’ll create a unique fabric collage, stitched on cardstock and full of meaning.
