Rich, dramatic, and gloriously sculptural, this magnificent Ruby Poppy is the most ambitious piece in our Summer Garden series — a striking three-dimensional flower designed for experienced stitchers who love intricate hand embroidery and raised textile techniques. Across two immersive sessions, we will create beautifully shaped wired petals filled with delicate detached Brussels needlelace, building layers of translucent texture and depth before finishing the flower with a dark, velvety centre worked in wonderfully tactile Turkey Knot stitch.
Like the other projects in this collection, this class is also designed as a creative “stash-buster.” No kit is required; instead, students will receive full instructions together with a suggested materials list, encouraging you to explore your own treasured threads, fabrics, wires, and embellishments to create a poppy entirely unique to you. Perfect for adventurous stitchers who enjoy dimensional embroidery, needlelace, texture, construction techniques, and expressive hand stitching inspired by the rich beauty of the summer garden.
