There's a place off Ocean Avenue where we used to stitch... 🌊🖤🪡

This month's Emo Embroidery is inspired by one of the most iconic songs of the 2000s: Yellowcard's Ocean Avenue.

For this workshop, Brittany hand-drew an original embroidery design featuring a towering ocean wave rolling beneath a glowing sunset, paired with the unforgettable lyric:

"Let your waves crash down on me and take me away."

There's something about this song that perfectly captures late summer… the feeling of warm evenings that don't last forever, friendships that shaped you, and the bittersweet nostalgia of looking back while still hoping for what's ahead. This design brings all of that emotion together in one peaceful, dramatic seascape.

As always, we'll spend the evening embroidering, listening to emo classics, singing far louder than necessary, and collectively pretending it's still 2003.

This workshop is beginner-friendly and includes:
🪡 pre-printed fabric featuring Brittany's original design
🧵 embroidery floss to match the ocean blues and sunshine yellow skies
✨ all stitching materials needed during class

Your finished piece is perfect for:
🖤 emo gallery walls and music corners
📚 bookshelves filled with records, CDs, and favorite novels
✨ cozy reading nooks and creative spaces
🌙 reminding yourself that summer nights used to feel a little magical

The Vibe:
🎶 Ocean Avenue on the playlist (probably more than once)
🌊 A room full of people reminiscing about the soundtrack of their teenage years
🪡 Cozy stitching, dramatic lyrics, and just the right amount of nostalgia

Come dressed in your finest emo attire. Band tees, black eyeliner, flannels in summer, all of it encouraged.

All materials included. All feelings honored. Always. 🖤

Workshop Age Guidance

🪡 Essential Stitches: Practice backstitch for crisp lettering, satin stitch for filled accents, and French knots for subtle texture.

🪩 No Panic, Only Disco: Share your favorite bands and songs, concert stories, or memories in a welcoming, emo-loving community!
