Embroidered Mini Photo Quilt

Service Description

Hand embroider a mini quilt with hand embroidery and applique, that includes your own photo. This workshop is suitable for beginners and advanced alike. All materials and tuition are included in the workshop. I will print your photo onto cotton fabric, please email it to me a week before the workshop. 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. 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 any sentimental fabrics/lace from your stash, 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. Additional printed photos are available for £5 each, please let me know if you would like this. Photos are printed onto cotton fabric. Please note that the studio is on the third floor, with stair access only.
