Essential Embroidery Skills Course
The aim of the Essential Embroidery Skills course is to assist members to produce well designed and finished embroideries by focusing on the following techniques:
-
-
- Design for Embroidery – Exploring elements of design to use in embroidery projects.
- Colour for Embroidery – Understanding colour is important in designing beautiful and affective embroidery. Learn which colours work well together and which colours don’t, and why.
- Exploring More Stitches – An opportunity to further develop a repertoire of stitches.
- Mounting – Explore the lacing technique of mounting embroidery, a technique suitable for framing or box making.
- Hems and Hemstitching – How to finish and hem your embroidery
-
Upon completing a class, participants may produce a small project to be assessed by the relevant tutor. To obtain the Essential Embroidery Skills certificate all five classes must be attended and a successful assessment gained. Alternatively, classes can be done individually without assessment.
