It is often said that an embroiderer can create beautiful work from just a few stitches. This beginners class will introduce you to some of the most popular stitches and once mastered you will work on a little take home project to show off your new found skills.
You will design and create your piece of hand-embroidered art. Ruth will bring images and examples of her work for you to use as inspiration and guide you through the process of creating your unique embroidery.
Hand embroidery, and other sewing skills can be used as a mindfulness tool in our hectic lives. If you struggle to switch your brain off after work, or think you waste too much time mindlessly scrolling through Instagram you must try hand embroidery as tool to ween yourself off technology!
We’ll teach you how to use an embroidery foot and hoop to 'draw' with stitches on your sewing machine and create embroidered works of art. Then decorate a calico bag and transfer your design with the help of textile artist Michelle Barnard.
