African Safari bookAfrican Folklore Embroidery

African Folklore Embroidery needlecraft kits are creative, fun and colorful. They are for the beginner as well as the sophisticated stitcher. All of the kits can be converted into pillows, purses, quilts and wall-hangings. African Folklore Embroidery is a multi cultural needlecraft, a wearable art and a visual art that appeals to all ages. African Folklore Embroidery is quickly growing to become one of the most popular cultural and artistic classes available. The extreme contrasts of brightly colored threads against the black fabric make any completed design both striking and beautiful.

African Folklore Embroidery is owned by Leora Raikin, a South African native, living in Los Angeles. She was taught this creative and multi cultural needlecraft by her mother. "African Folklore Embroidery is my hobby and passion," says Leora. "I love stitching, I love using colors and I take a great sense of pride in each design completed by one of my students. No two completed kit designs ever look the same!" Leora has lectured over 600 children and adults across the United States in the art of African Folklore Embroidery. These lectures are fun, interactive, humorous and informative. Check Leora's Schedule and meet her at one of the  Shows or attend one of her many lectures.

Through the African Folklore Embroidery Educator Program, Leora has trained numerous qualified persons in many states to teach and lecture about African Folklore Embroidery. Find a store and/or educator near you, so you can see and learn how much fun African Folklore Embroidery is!
