The details

We start the class with creative exercises to get you in the mood.

You’ll be working on a recycled fabric panel

You’ll learn a small selection of stiches and a large amounts of ways to use them for your panel.

The panel’s purpose is like a blank canvas. It’s going to be a bit like sketching with embroidery, but also not quite.

Super fun, you don’t want to miss it.
