Moving onto the final part of the Ammonite design, we work on the most tricky new stitches we will be teaching in this Introduction to Embroidery Class and Kit. We start off with French Knots for a sparse fill and blending, then trying couching for dense coverage. We learn to free-style with Feather Stitch and finally end with the styling of the 3D tendrils to give our creature some character.

Following the class you will be in a great position to take your next step into more specific embroidery techniques as you will have a very strong base knowledge of embroidery along with a beautiful sample piece to treasure like the fossils that inspired it

Kits are available and necessary to go alongside this series of 3 online classes so that we can provide you with the materials (mini kit) needed to complete the artwork. Choose the deluxe if you need equipment too.

Own Equipment Needed:

• Embroidery hoop: Table Clamp, Seat or Slate frame (if mini kit)

• Thread snips (if mini kit)

• Spray Starch
• Pencil

When you have made your purchase, the link will be sent to your email and kits through the post. You can use the video as many times as you like, watch, rewatch, rewind and pause us as you please.
