Rainbow Wall Hanging Beginners Embroidery Workshop

WHAT HAPPENS IN THIS CLASS?

Learn to stitch your own wall hanging in this two hour workshop with embroidery artist Katie Wells. The workshop is hosted at the brand new Elephant Stores in collaboration with SoLo Craft Fair and Little Louie café and bar.

You’ll learn all the basic embroidery stitches (satin, French knot, running, split and lazy daisy), plus lots of other tips and tricks to get you started.

We’ll be working on a rainbow embroidered wall hanging in golden autumnal tones. You’ll start your embroidery in class and finish at home (or you’ll be offered the chance to finish it at a future workshop at a discounted rate if you’d rather).

This is a beginner’s class but if you already have a bit of experience it’s a great way to brush up on your skills.

Accessibility: The venue is fully accessible but please let me know in advance if you have any accessibility needs so that I can make sure everything is safe and comfortable for you. If you have auditory, visual or any other needs, please get in touch so we can discuss how I can make the workshop more inclusive on the day

THINGS TO REMEMBER

All materials are provided. You will take home with you everything you need to finish your embroidered wall hanging: embroidery hoop, thread, needle, fabric, tassels, wooden dowelling and waxed braided cord for hanging. All you'll need when you get home is a pair of scissors.

The ticket price includes a drink - there are a range of drinks available including beer, wine, soft drinks, tea and coffee. If the bar is running happy hour during the workshop there is also the option of 2-for-1 cocktails, but you'll have to convince a fellow student join you in the offer!
