The Beading Class
On November 18th, Chloe will be taking the class through exciting beading techniques to embellish a Christmas decoration in an unique and magical way.
We will be working a design on linen twill (already traced for you). Chloe has designed this adaptation of our circular sunflower design in gold using sequins, pearls, a few tiny wooden beads and golden threads.
The finished piece will make a beautiful Christmas decoration which can be hung on your tree, either in a 5inch embroidery hoop (we provide blank twill for the reverse) or as a mini circular cushion. The embroidery will be worked using a 6inch hoop. BOOK NOW!
CHAINED SEQUIN: A hand embroidered sample created for a pervious Wemyss School of Needlework workshop lead by Chloe. This design was created using an archive pattern from the Weymss collection using chain stitch and sequins.
