Machine Embroidery- Beginners
If the Status is available, select below by ticking the left hand box and then click the Proceed button.
Discover the art of Freehand Machine embroidery.
You’ll create a design on paper, either from an existing design, observational, or abstract mark making. You’ll then discover how to translate your design onto fabric using a sewing machine, exploring different colours and textures in the process. You will experiment with techniques such as applied appliques, dissolvable fabric and bonder web.
At the end of the course, you’ll have produced a piece of artwork that can be framed and displayed or used as an appliqué. Alternatively, you could bring along a shirt or bag you’d like to decorate and embroider directly onto this to give your item a contemporary, upcycled feel.
