Free-motion embroidery, also known as Free-Machine embroidery, is a useful core skill for Textile Artists, Quilters and Felters. Many of my other creative workshops involve free-motion embroidery so if you’re not sure which one to take, then I recommend this workshop as a starting point. No ‘drawing’ experience is necessary.
What will I learn?
This workshop aims to teach you the basic techniques of free-motion embroidery:
setting up the machine for free-motion embroidery
guiding the needle to draw with thread
how to obtain a variety of pattern and effect
use of fabric stabilisers
the afternoon project will help you practice, to create a small stitched picture.
Course arrangements
All materials and sewing machines are provided or you can bring your own machine.
