Conference Event

Students will make a pair of small notebooks with embroidered Kraftex paper covers. The notebooks are 3 x 5 inches each and stitched at the top to make a ledger style book. You will learn an embroidery stitch called the sorbello stitch to embellish the covers. Learn to tear down paper from larger sheets, a great skill for recycling paper to make more notebooks. A complete list of supplies will be emailed to you after you have signed up for the class. This class is part of the Artwaves Fall Online Conference. Register through the conference page.

Instead of an old fashioned sampler, learn seven different embroidery stitches while you make a charming circus elephant. It’s a new twist on a beginning embroidery class. You will have fun stitching on wool felt with coloured threads and a few beads or sequins for sparkle. Stitches include back stitch, whip stitch, figure 8 knots, fly stitch, long stitch, wheat ear stitch, and running stitch. Your finished elephant can be used as a pincushion, a tiny stuffed toy or a show stopping holiday ornament. A complete list of supplies will be emailed to you after you have signed up for the class.
