Introduce children to the joyful world of Phulkari embroidery through a hands-on family-friendly workshop designed for children ages 8 and above with parental supervision.
Participants will explore the history and creativity of Phulkari through an interactive presentation designed especially for young artists. They will learn how traditional embroiderers used flowers, animals, birds, and everyday objects to tell stories through textiles. The session will encourage children to think of embroidery as a form of drawing with thread, where every stitch adds colour, imagination, and personality to their artwork.
Children will embroider playful Phulkari-inspired animals and insects using the traditional darning stitch. Each participant will receive a pre-drawn motif on fabric and will learn the basic technique to transform the design into their own embroidered creation.
