Artist: Sarah R.
Project: Beginner Hand Embroidery Sampler
Description: Sarah begins each class talking about transfer methods (how to get patterns and your own illustrations on to fabric), and giving book and web resources for this information, so you can do further looking and exploring on your own.
She teaches six basic stitches with explicit instruction. While the class is practicing each stitch she talks about the best uses for that stitch, (text, outline, can be used as a fill stitch, etc.), and encourages people to take notes and write down the info that would be most useful for them to have. She brings examples of her work so you can see how she's applied the stitches.
The sampler is not finished in class. This is on purpose so you can go home to practice on your own.
Skill Level: Beginner/Novice
Age: 12+
Availability: Most evenings and weekend mornings . Weekday mornings can be arranged on an as need basis. Will travel within a 25 mile radius from downtown Atlanta
Length: One (1) 2-hour session
