Class Description:

Improvisational Hand Embroidery on Wool

Create a densely hand-embroidered vignette on wool. Wool fabric is easy on the hands and welcomes hand stitchery with colorful embroidery threads. You’ll learn a swift way to transfer an original design to the wool. Then learn how to use simple embroidery stitches to create lines and pattern along with various stitch combinations to make even more texture.

This project is designed by the student using a kit of colorful embroidery threads, needles, and solid-colored wool fabric. ($30 kit fee)
