Folk Art Whimsy

Hand embroidery is the art of decorative stitching on fabric with a needle and thread. This introductory course will teach you all you need to know to get started for a lifetime of pleasure in this traditional yet timeless stitching craft. Pair this course with Catherine’s Butterfly Stitches to learn whipstitch appliqué and several dimensional embroidery stitches.

As a master of her craft, Catherine Redford shares all the tips and tricks she learned over the years to succeed at hand embroidery. She gives you a folk art overview and guides you through the materials and tools needed to start your hand embroidery journey. Learn how to prepare and transfer designs and finishing techniques you can use for future projects.

By the end of the course, you can make a stand-alone appliqué patch or a quilt (or both!).
