Embroider a wearable piece of art. This metal thread brooch is a simple, pretty design, which covers two basic techniques of metal thread work – couching with pearl purl and embellishing with ‘chips’. It is an ideal starting point for launching an exciting journey into goldwork and all its many possibilities,
as well as a talking point whenever and wherever you wear it.
The kits are available in a variety of background and metal thread colours and will be allocated at random.
Suitable for beginners.
The class kit will include everything you require to complete the project. You will need a hoop (10" is ideal) and fine embroidery scissors and may find a magnifier and lamp useful.
