Crown Shyness 

Embroidery Study

with Ren LaDassor

ages 18+

Wednesdays, Nov 4 - 11

5:30 - 8 pm

$100

Crown Shyness is a phenomenon in nature where the uppermost branches of certain trees never quite touch. It creates a striking puzzle-like pattern when viewed from above. Using a handful of embroidery stitches and needle felting techniques, we will sew our own birds-eye view of a tropical jungle of crown shyness. This class is great for beginners, as it can be tailored to anyone's skill level.


Please note, there is an additional $15 material fee that will be charged a couple of days prior to the start of class.


Registration deadline: 10/28/2026. Minimum of 6 students to run. 


Annual registration fee does not apply.
