IN PERSON - Free Machine Embriodery Workshop - 8th December 2023

Join Cat in her Studio for a one day free machine sewing workshop.

Friday 8th December 2023

Do you feel anxious about dropping your feed dogs? Do you want to add textural detail and richness to your stitched work? Do you want to use the free motion technique with control and confidence?

Then this workshop is for you, we focus on the free motion embroidery technique in depth, going back to basics and creating confidence in using your machine successfully. Leave feeling inspired and empowered to use this exciting and liberating technique!

This is a beginners’ workshop on free machine embroidery (free motion/freehand). Using your own sewing machines you will learn the basics of free machine embroidery, pick up handy hints and tips and trouble shoot previous issues and problems.

The day will be full of wonderful exercises to build confidence in using our machines in this exciting and dynamic way. We will create a visual reference or dictionary of patterns and mark making to use in future creative art projects, quilts pieces and stitched work. We’ll consider the machined stitched line as a drawing tool.

You will gain confidence in mastering the popular technique and we will combine both free machine embroidery and appliqué, completing a little piece by the end of the day.

This is a one day workshop at Cat's studio in Redruth Cornwall.

The number of places are limited to four which makes for a lovely small gathering in the studio with plenty of room to work.

The workshop day runs from 10am - 4pm with tea, coffee and cake provided. Please bring your own lunch. 

Once you've signed up a welcome email with all the details for the class and details on how to find Cat's studio will be sent to you.

It'll be great to see you in class!
