This is a fun and exciting class featuring a small piece of canvaswork. The class will feature fun stitches such as various types of Jessicas, Herringbone, Waffles, Sprats Head and Long-Armed Cross. Students will work with Perle Cottons, Silk Impressions and various Metallic threads to create a lovely wearable Cuff Bracelet, a Box Top or even a Book Mark. A striking autumn colour palette of copper, rust, turquoise and brown and embellishments of crystals and pearls will make for an interesting stitching experience. Finishing techniques will be discussed. This piece is small enough that most will be able to kit it from their stash.
