Virtual Event Info:
If you are just starting out or want to brush up on your technique, this is the perfect place to start. Learn about best practices for embroidery including: threads, needles, stabilizers, proper hooping methods, registration, troubleshooting common embroidery issues, setting up your workspace, storing embroidery files correctly on your computer, digitizing principles, embroidery stitch types, adding and editing designs on your machine, applique techniques, floating fabrics, and ITH (in-the-hoop) projects. *Event includes a kit!
We will create 4 projects: napkin, applique tote bag, ITH key fob, and ITH coaster. Each project focuses on a different technique such as “normal” vs. ITH embroidery (sewing on a finished item – napkin & bag vs. ith coaster and key fob), hooping vs. floating fabrics (bag vs. key fob), and adding text to a file vs. not adding anything.
Preferred Hoop size 5”x7” (4”x 4” is allowed; some projects will be made differently).
