Summer Garden Class:
STStitch From Your Stash - Crewelwork Tulip
Live Online Class of 1 × 2.5hr Session
£58.00
Time to create a little bit of Springtime for all year round...
This Crewelwork Tulip motif was inspired by nature, and designed for the beginner stitcher in mind. Traditionally, Crewelwork is stitched using a 2 ply Crewel Wool thread, but this design would look just as charming stitched using a similar weight (thickness) of thread.
Jacobean style of embroidery dates back centuries and elements of this style have been retained in distorted proportions of this Tulip motif.
These stitches are used in many embroidery techniques, even at the highest level. They are repeated throughout this project to help the stitcher gain experience, confidence and speed.
Booking Closes July 18th.

Excellent Artist and Teacher
Kelley’s classes are the best. I’ve taken two classes from her over two years. Her demonstrations are clear and easy to follow. She has perfected her on-line teaching style. I’ve found her to be kind and patient and she frequently throws in a little example or historic fact to keep things interesting. My fellow students have ranged from beginners to advanced stitchers and I believe everyone has been happy with the instructions we’ve received.

Wonderful Goldwork
I took Kelleys Goldwork sampler course which covered all aspects of Goldwork and a few extras such as how to mount your work. A well designed course, very well delivered and a lot of fun. It has definitely improved my Goldwork skills! Kelley is enthusiastic and very helpful.

What a Brilliant Experience!
I've just finished the class portion of Kelley's Goldwork Sampler and I'm really sad it's over. I have done a number of 2 day classes in this technique over the last few years, but I found working in this manner (Zoom classes at fortnightly intervals over nearly a year, with video clips of the techniques available through the portal) meant that if you found there was something that didn't make sense later, you could check back, or more importantly, ask a question at the next lesson. I've picked up on a lot of tiny things that have led to some very satisfying improvements in the quality of my work, learned some really useful techniques, and got links to sources of otherwise hard to find equipment. (Especially useful as I'm located down under in New Zealand.) Thank you Kelly for a wonderful experience - I had a blast!
