Duration: 4 Week Embroidery Course (1 x 2.5 hour session per week for 4 consecutive weeks) 

Inspired by the natural elegance of ferns, this four week course will bring something new to your embroidery practice. You will be introduced to a blend of goldwork, hand beading, and delicate threadwork techniques as you create an intricate fern design in luminous shades of green and silver. Throughout the course you will learn how to apply beads and create beaded tassels. You will explore the art of goldwork, adding fine metallic details that enhance the structure and flow of each leaf. Threadwork techniques will guide you in creating gentle shading and elegant stitch direction, bringing depth to your design.
