Shape of My Heart
Mini Bag Workshop
February 2026
February is the month of hearts.
That’s why I invite you to my new workshop, where we will create a small heart-shaped bag together.
This is not only an embroidery class, but a calm, creative journey — step by step, from the very first stitch to a fully finished piece.
What will we do?
We will embroider the bag elements, build the structure, and assemble everything together until the mini bag is completely finished and ready to use.
How will we work?
During the workshop, I will be creating a second mini bag together with you in real time, using a different color.
Video lessons will be added gradually.
Throughout the entire process, I will be present and answering your questions in the group until my bag is finished.
What can you do already?
You can prepare all necessary materials and print the templates — everything is already available in the introductory lesson in video and PDF format.
Who is this workshop for?
If you are comfortable with a needle and thread and know how to cut and glue, you are very welcome.
If you already work with the Luneville hook — wonderful, it will simply allow you to work faster.
If not, I will show you how to complete the entire project using a regular needle.
How much does it cost?
While I am creating my bag and adding the lessons step by step, the workshop
price is 50 EUR.
Once the workshop is fully completed, the price will increase to 99 EUR.
How long will access last?
All workshop materials and video lessons will be available to you for one year from the date of purchase.
You may join at any time — even after the live sessions are finished — but please note that the price will be different then.
