In this class, you’ll learn how to embroider a cute camper van print to decorate your home or office!
Participants will learn how to make their own basic embroidery designs and learn four popular threading techniques. Examples will be demonstrated in threading stitch styles: running, back, satin, chain stitch, and the french knot. Participants will stitch on large cotton fabric muslin towels that can then be cut out and sealed in their hoop to hang as a decorative piece.
This class is hands-on with all materials included and ready to go. Not only will participants learn how to embroider but also leave with their first hoop creation and an understanding of how to go forward and stitch!
Supplies included are a flower sack dish towel, an embroidery hoop, different colors of thread, embroidery needle, and embroidery needle threader. Masks required.
