A World of Embroidery            

12 months of different embroidery techniques with a floral theme.  

Each month will highlight a different technique starting with a simple April Showers Redwork piece that also incorporates some basic embroidery stitches. A fun piece for anyone from an absolute beginner to a more advanced needleworker. 

You will be able to learn different techniques and experiment with a variety of threads and materials as you grow your embroidery skills. Each month can be done separately or can be combined at the end as a small quilt top! 

Each class will also have information on finding and creating designs, transferring methods, fabrics and threads, and useful tips & tricks.
