Say It With Stitch

19 December @ 3:30 pm - 6:00 pm

£20

Come along and make a mini banner using the embroidery technique of couching. In the workshop we will be stitching lettering, then if time allows, finish it off into a little banner to hang up at home (if you do not finish in the time, materials and instructions will be provided to complete it after).

Counching with yarn is a great technique for stitching words but can also be used to create work for anything from fine goldwork embroidery to multi-media pieces that incorporate found items such as twigs. Materials provided, but if you want to bring your own hand sewing kit, embroidery hoop and any fabric/yarn you would like to use then do bring it along.

About the Tutor:

Elizabeth Betts is a Hove based textile creative and the author of The Beginners Guide to Quilting and the Modern Quilt Bible. As well as writing, technical editing for other craft authors and editing a patchwork magazine in her varied work career, she has taught in lots of different places, from museums and libraries to parks and pubs.

Her work has its grounding in historical techniques but adapted to fit into a modern lifestyle. With many years of teaching quilting behind her she still gets a thrill when someone who says they cannot sew or was criticised when at school leaves her workshop saying they enjoyed it and had a good time.
