Add On: Introduction to Counted Canvas Needlepoint
This gorgeous counted canvas class is sure to delight a wide range of students from beginner to advanced. Designed by renowned needlepoint designer Laura Perrin, Holiday Ornament Series #1 from her American Quilt Collection, contains four beautiful motifs to stitch.
Our teacher, Mary Waldsmith, will lead students through the stitches to complete the Lone Star design (upper left corner) during class. The kit includes the patterns and threads for all four motifs, a full set of stretcher bars, and canvas for one motif. Additional pieces of canvas will be needed to complete the other three motifs, which you can purchase in the shopping room.
Class will be held on Saturday, May 25th from 8 am to 5 pm and is $90.
We hope you’ll join us and learn how to stitch this beautiful ornamental piece. Mary is a wonderful, engaging teacher and a long-standing member of the Embroiderers’ Guild of America. Her classes are fun, and counted canvas is a wonderful technique to explore if you love to cross stitch. We hope to see you in class!
