This is a discussion class with some "hands on". Learn about different fabrics (including linens) and fibers. Practice stitching on linen with metallics and beads. We'll talk about how to determine your fabric size, where to start your stitching, how to keep a neater back, and how to wash your completed project. We'll also discuss some of the "gadgets" available to make your stitching easier. If you'd like, bring a piece that you are working on for "show & tell".
Introduction to Hardanger -- $15.00 (includes materials)
Tuesday, March 18 (6:30 - 9:00)
You'll find that Hardanger is not as "hard" as you might think. We will stitch a little heart to teach you things like kloster blocks, cutting, woven bars, and dove's eyes. We will be using 25-count fabric. Experience stitching on linen-weave fabrics is required.
