Join us for this unusual and inspirational class, creating a twist on the tradition of Tibetan Prayer Flags! 

These Prayer Flags are simply intended to be banners of hope and peace. They’re a visual voice, symbolic of our hopes, dreams, concerns, prayers, wishes and good thoughts. They are meant to spread goodwill and compassion, uplifting all, as they blow in the wind. Kelly will guide and assist you as you make your own.  

You’ll use fabrics, lace, trim, buttons, and more to make your very own one-of-a-kind Prayer Flag. Its approximate size will be anywhere up to 9” x 12”, using your own inspirational word or thought. Make one or more as time allows.  Please feel free to bring your own sentimental embellishments or use the ones provided.   

As this is a 3-hour workshop (running from 10-1), Kelly will be demonstrating using fabric glue, so if you want hand-stitched letters or words, please prepare them ahead of time. Otherwise, all materials will be provided.  

Feel free to bring a snack or pack your lunch!
