This workshop is intended for those who feel confident with working on an existing pattern and are ready to create their own embroidery designs. Designs can include personal drawings or images your enjoy (think tarot cards, tattoos, a graphic you found online, your grandma's handwriting).
You'll learn which types of images transfer well to embroidery and which method of transfer to use based on the type of design and fabric you've selected.
You'll also learn how to select appropriate stitches for varying textural and visual effects. We'll spend some time as a group selecting a few new stitches to learn that work for multiple projects.
Required Materials
Embroidery Hoop appropriately sized for your project
DMC brand embroidery floss needed for your project
