Embroidered Mini Photo Quilt

Service Description

Working with your photo printed onto fabric. Hand embroider a mini quilt with hand embroidery and applique, that includes your own photo. Please provide your photo to me at least two days before the workshop date. This workshop is suitable for beginners and advanced alike. All materials and tuition are included in the workshop. Your photo will be printed to onto cotton fabric. It can be colour or black and white and will be printed at approximately 8cm to 13cm, and it can be square or oblong. Alternatively, you can bring your own photo printed onto fabric if preferred. This is a mini version of the Stitched Photographs workshop that I run, the photo will be printed on a smaller scale, with appliqued fabric and trims to embellish. The finished embroideries are a perfect size to fit into a photo frame, and make beautiful gifts and keepsakes. Please note: If you are booking for a friend, please let me know their name and email address, so I can request an image from them. Materials included in the workshop, and some to take away to finish your project at home: - Fabric panel for the base, and patterned fabric swatches to decorate. - Lace, buttons, and trims. - Embroidery Needles. - Perle and stranded cottons. - Your photo printed onto cotton fabric. - Blanket or fabric backing for the quilted element. - All tools needed for the project will be included in the studio, but if you have favourite tools, then please bring them. - If you have favourite or sentimental fabrics/lace, please feel free to being those along too. This workshop is equally suitable for advanced stitchers as it is possible to be as creative as you like as there will be a variety of stitches that can be included, including some to stretch your embroidery skills. This is a very creatively freeing process, and there are no rules as the focus is on enjoyment over perfect results. Please note the studio is on the third floor, with stair access only. In the case of cancellation, due to the bespoke element of the photograph printing, £15 would be deducted to cover this, but you would still receive your photographs.
