Hand-stitch and Embroidery for beginners

In this class, students will learn the basics of handstitching and embroidery, beginning with threading a needle and tying off a stitch. Students will learn a total of 5 stitches, the running stitch, backstitch, whip stitch, blanket stitch, and the French knot. They’ll even learn how to stitch on a button. We will learn to improve upon neat, even stitches, and the students will put their knowledge to use, making felt donuts, pin cushions, and embroidered ornaments.
