In this workshop students will learn a number of decorative embroidery stitches and then make their small sampler into a wearable wrist cuff. Embroidery stitches will include the buttonhole stitch/circles, French knots, crossed stitch, lazy daisy and the sheaf stitch. The sampler will be backed and hand-stitched to create the wrist cuff and students will learn how to create a hand-stitched buttonhole. A decorative button completes the project. These are fun to make out of wool for the winter months and linen and/or cotton for the warmer months. In this workshop we will work with a linen/cotton blend. Makes a great gift!
