Open to beginners as well as experienced embroiderers.
We will create a 3' hooped embroidered ornament for your tree, featuring a cardinal in an evergreen.
We will cover the satin stitch with blended colors for realistic shading, couching with metal cord for a boarder, chain stitch for the pine needles, and beading for the berries.
Everyone will go home with all the things needed to complete their embroidery.
For more advanced students will get the same kit as beginners but the instructor, Liz Ives, will bring additional thread and tool for you to try.
Liz will talk with more advanced students about their individual needs before class.
Some suggestions for more advanced students include using single strands of thread for a finer color shading, working with a laying tool, trying silk and wool thread or mastering bullion knots for texture.
