Spend an hour each week stitching in this fun hand embroidery sampler class, held online via Zoom. This is an 11 week class, starting July 18, 2024. Each week, you will learn a new sashiko-inspired stitch, a Japanese embroidery technique where the stitches are based on combinations of running stitches and threaded running stitches, placed on a grid. Class dates: Thursdays July 18 – September 26, 12:00 – 1:00 pm Central Time. Your registration for this class includes access to pre-recorded lessons, so if you need to miss any class, you can catch up with the recording on your own schedule. Your class fee includes a pre-printed panel with six woodland creature blocks. Each includes grid patterns and/or placement markings to help with your stitches. The animals include a rabbit, duck, fox, hedgehog, toad, and squirrel printed in navy blue. These were designed by Becka and printed on 100% cotton fabric from Spoonflower. Each finished block is 5 inches square and can be finished to make into coasters, pockets, the center of a patchwork pillow or quilt block. You provide the rest of the materials and tools for class.
