Back to School

Hurrah - classes have re-started in a Covid-secure environment!  

To celebrate the return of regular workshops I have devised a stitch sampler book.  Here are the first pages to practise straight stitches and chains.  Each double page has examples of the different kinds of stitch with a small sampler on the opposite page.  There will be 8 double pages in all which build into a small fabric book.

Classes run on Tuesday at Glusburn Institute 10-12noon and Thursday at West Lane Baptist Church, Haworth 10-12:30.  Message me to reserve a place or order a kit.

Purple reign

 

When someone sends me a photograph as beautiful as this, I can't help but get out my sewing threads and recreate it in stitch.  The wonderful textures and colours captured in this image taken by Lindsay have been translated into two pictures worked in darning stitch (below left) and kantha (below right).  Both are available as kits.
