A relaxed, experimental and mindful embroidery class, introducing you to hand embroidery. We will explore colour, create texture and develop shapes, using a wide variety of yarns, threads and beads and learning different embroidery stitches at the same time.
This class is perfect for those new to embroidery or even improvers who just want to learn this contemporary way of embroidering. Ruth will help you to create your own individual and unique piece of work. We will work on a 7” wooden hoop, and you will be shown options for backing and finishing the hoop ready to take home and hang.
