Do you have a favorite image or drawing you'd like to embellish with embroidery stitching? Hand-stitch details onto a photo, drawing, or card stock — a lasting keepsake for yourself, your family, or friends. Please consider a simplified image or drawing without a lot of distractions for your first project — less is more in this case. We will use the background as your stitching detail — this lets the viewer's eye focus on the subject matter, since we won't be stitching directly into the focal image itself. (See the dog photo)

Using needle and thread, you'll work with a piece from your own stash — preferably something you've created yourself, whether a photograph or an original drawing. I'll teach you tips and tricks for choosing the right paper, needle, and thread.
It's a slow and steady practice that, once learned, can become quite meditative.
Prerequisites: You must know how to create French knots and thread a needle.
We'll begin with subtle designs to build your skills, then you're free to embellish as you like on future projects.
