Bringing colour and texture to the party, this goldwork class for a lettering outcome. Taught by breaking the letters down into their characteristics, you can apply the approaches to the letter of your choosing and it will arm you to be able to take on any shapes you might come across.  We will be covering couching of traditional gold threads which can be applied to sich threads as rococo, passing and twists. This will be finished off by overstretched the Pearle Purl to show off its integral shape and enhanced with a cotton core for a flash of colour.
There are no kits for this class as we encourage you to make your own creative material choices for a truly personalised outcome, See the full product description for the details
