Floral Embroidery

June will bring flowers regardless of the weather here in Western New York, with this floral embroidery workshop!

Kick your embroidery skills up a notch and learn how to add texture and depth to your needlework while you make your way through a lovely, floral stitch sampler. Together we will learn how to create several embroidery stitches including fishbone stitch, stem stitch, woven wheel and french knots

Previous experience with basic embroidery or other hand sewing is highly encouraged, but not required– if you’re up for a challenge! Deb, our instructor has plenty of experience teaching beginners.

During the workshop we will focus on learning the stitches to complete a small sampler hoop, that you can work on after the class is over, but floral embroidery can also be a beautiful way to customize your wardrobe, and adds panache to your visible mending skills.

Space is limited, so sign up today!

 

quick clay – spoon rest

New this month – a series of quick, one hour projects for only $10 each. Join different members of our instruction team to make a small project using a hand building technique.

Looking for a small hand made Mother’s Day gift, or a hostess or house warming present? How about joining us to make spoon rests and/or soap dishes this week. We will provide a clay slab, you can shape, texture and sculpt to your heart’s content. At the end of class, pick out your glaze color(s) and leave the rest to us – we will bisque fire, wash, wax and glaze your project, than fire it one last time. Projects will be ready for pick up by May 12th just in time for Mother’s Day.
