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.

Wonderful course,so inspirational !
Very interesting course with lots of ideas, however it was too basic for me. I have completed many embroidery and craft courses with Domestika - I feel this is one that I should have started with - It's a great course for beginners. I did find the translation to be a bit off and confusing.
I gained a lot of inspiration and new ideas. Trini is a really engaging teacher. She encourages students to be kind to themselves and to enjoy the creative process. Her work is beautiful.
Loved the course-so many ideas!
Excelente curso, e otima professora! adorei!!!!
