Virtual Event Info:
We will be embroidering 6 Christmas projects which include the following: a variety of ITH ornaments from snow globes to ugly sweaters and hoops, an ITH applique Santa bag, and “A Christmas Carol” Advent calendar. These designs will teach you how to float fabrics on the top and underside of your hoop, applique techniques, using different stabilizers, getting clean edges on projects, and best practices for specialty threads. *Event comes with kit!
*Important Note about Hoop Sizes:
You can use a 4×4” for the individual pockets or a larger hoop and sew multiple pockets out at the same time. The panels are setup for 8”x8” or larger hoops. If you are using a 5” x 7” or 4” x 4” hoop for the panels, you will need to “multi-hoop” your panels or finish the panels on your sewing machine.

4” x 4” hoop = 4” x 14” (Acceptable hoop – Panels made differently)
5” x 7” hoop = 7” x 20” (Acceptable hoop – Panels made differently)
8” x 8” or 8” x 12” hoop = 7” x 36” (Preferred Size)
Finished wall hanging will measure 7” w x 36” h (including hanging ribbon – large hoop).
Panels measure just under: 7” x 10”.
Pockets: 2” x 2.25”.

*Finishing the project may require completion on your sewing machine (dependent upon hoop size).
*Project may not be completed by end of event. A full tutorial video will be included for later viewing on all projects.
