Join Stephie from Hoop & Fred for a mindful afternoon at Garten Bar Manchester with this beginner friendly embroidery workshop!
Join me at the Big Penny Social for a special evening of hand stitching. I will take you through the very cool technique of chickenscratch embroidery, which is done on gingham fabric with normnal embroidery threads. Simple techniques can be combined in endless ways and colours to adorn clothes, homewares, notebook covers, all kinds.
Do you have you a sewing machine but you’re not quite sure what to do with it? Did your machine come with a selection of presser feet and “bits and bobs” that you’ve never explored? If so, then our one day workshop is just the thing for you to get the very best out of your machine.
New for 2020, this fun workshop will aim to move you on from “in-the-ditch” quilting and from quilting straight lines. Using a variety of techniques we will work on quilting common patchwork shapes to find a style and method that suits you best. This workshop is aimed at those with some quilting experience who are keen to move their skills on in a completely new direction. However, it is suitable for all abilities as full tuition and hand-holding will be provided on the day.
