Hand Embroidery at Down County Museum

The Mall, English Street, Downpatrick, County Down, BT30 6AH
Hand Embroidery

About

Embroidery is the art of decorating fabric with threads using a variety of stitches in various colours. Each participant will create a sampler of embroidery stitches and will receive handouts as a reminder of how to sew the stitches. You will learn how to embroider chain, blanket, feather, French knots and couching plus lots more.


Embroidery hoops and all the materials and threads will be provided. You'll look at how to source inspiration for your own designs, and how to transfer those designs onto your chosen fabrics. Before you know it, you'll be stitching your cares away, embroidering new life into everything from cushion covers, pillowcases to shopping bags and clothing.

This workshop is suitable for beginners or for those looking to refresh their skills.
