Workshop Description
This workshop will focus on my signature style of hand embroidery, combined with patching and appliqué techniques. You will be starting your own version of one of my signature embroidery templates. There will be a large selection of my templates for you to choose from at the start of the class.
Please note, one template of your choice is included in the overall price of this class. You will also be given full use of my embroidery threads and fabric scraps, as well as a printed stitch guide to take home.
At the start of this class, I will show you a selection of my original embroidered samples to inspire you. I will then direct you both as a group and individually to create your own version of one of my signature designs. The main focus of this workshop is to create a beautiful, one-off stitched memento. I will work with you individually to choose a colour palette that suits you, the maker.
You are welcome to work with my personal threads and fabrics on the day, but feel free to bring your own threads, fabrics, lace, ribbons, buttons, scissors and embroidery needles.
Dress Code
Wrap up! This class will be in a very large gallery/room and you may find it cold.

Please note that the techniques taught in my masterclasses are for personal use and inspiration only; they must not be used in commercial projects. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
