    Autour de l'Olive!

    The workshop's theme is olives. In the morning, you will learn to make olive bread, tapenade and Palmiers; and how to embroider a decorative olive twig detail onto a table napkin. 

    After the lunch break, we will practice scarf tying, or you can choose to finish your olive branch embroidery. 

    The workshop begins at 10 am in the Languedoc (located between Nîmes and Montpellier) and finishes at 4pm. 

     

    We will start the workshop by getting together over a cup of tea or coffee and then prepare the tapenade, Palmiers and delicious olive bread that will accompany our lunch. 

    Then you will learn to embroider a decorative olive twig detail onto a natural linen dinner-size napkin. The embroidery stitch is adapted for beginners, and there is no worry about not having enough time to complete your creation because you will take the embroidery hoop and needle with you, as well as the thread required to finish your napkin at home. 

    For lunch, we'll enjoy our Palmiers, tapenade and freshly baked olive bread with a selection of salads or soup and lovely French cheeses, accompanied by refreshing beverages and local wine. A homemade dessert will follow and be served with coffee or tea. Depending on the weather, the luncheon will be held alfresco in our tranquil courtyard or the beautifully furnished MaiTai Collection showroom.

    After lunch, we will start on scarf tying. Please bring a couple of your favourite scarves so that we can explore a variety of ways to wear them and how-to showcase specific parts of their design. You can also ask for how-tos on specific knots. The workshop finishes at 4 pm.

    • a linen napkin with your embroidery and a kit that contains all necessary items to finish your creation at home (embroidery hoop, needle and floss).
