Improve your creativity with threads and needles, no limits or rules
Embroidery is a powerful art. As a manual craft, it offers the possibility of achieving both traditional and experimental results, and changing your life in the process. Trini Guzmán—an artist known as Hola León in the world of embroidery—began embroidering in 2015. What began as artistic research became a passion that empowered her creatively, leading her to immerse herself fully in this art form and share her approach to embroidery and creativity in her book, The Embroidery Revolution.
In this course, learn to unleash your creativity and design a unique embroidered piece to apply to garments or anything else you can think of.

A course by Trini Guzmán (holaleon)
Trini Guzmán (Hola León) is a Chilean artist with a degree in art, specializing in sculpture, and murals. In 2015 she taught herself how to embroider, and also started her blog "Cosio, Bordao, Tejio" in an attempt to gather all her pieces and share her experience with this manual art.
She loves exploring creativity and all the possibilities it offers, so much so that she wrote the book The Embroidery Revolution, which focuses on how to enhance creativity through needles and thread, with no limits or rules.
