Event description

This is a six-lesson course where you will learn various embroidery stitches and design techniques to create your own slow-stitched design. Absolute beginner to advanced stitchers will enjoy using their creativity (with guidance if needed) to produce a one-of-a-kind project. 

We use a long strip of softly felted blanket to create our projects. This can be turned into a concertina book or a scroll to be hung on the wall. A spindle for the scroll can be purchased separately. You do not need a plan or idea to start a project. This may be counter-intutive to embroiderers who are used to patterns but the spontaneous design approach produces ideas that would not happen otherwise. It's also a lot of fun.

This is a 6 class course. Each lesson will run from 10am to 1pm.
