Have you always wanted to do freemotion embroidery or quilting but not know how to get started? Or if you’ve had a go, did you struggle to get stitches to go where you wanted them to?
This one day workshop is aimed at building your confidence, knowledge and expertise so you can get great results from freemotion machine stitch. Through simple, targeted activities Karina will teach you skills that will enable you to develop your ideas into freemotion outcomes. Ideally you will bring your own drawings, collages and photographs to work with to enable you to make freemotion samples that fit in with the themes that you love exploring.
A range of stablisers, deadstock fabrics and offcuts will be provided along with a limited selection of threads. You can borrow an embroidery hoop on the day but you may prefer to bring your own. You might find it useful to bring fabric scissors (small and large) along with any fabrics or thread that you like using.
