Re-Sized Online Class



The Embroidery Project: Re-Sized is a class that will take your embroidery to new proportions! All of the stitching and projects deal with teeny tiny, or gigantic stitches, and it's gonna be so much fun. Most of what we'll do is tiny, with one week of the big stuff!

This class is part learning new embroidery techniques and part making craft projects, because it's more fun to put freshly learned ideas into use right away! Plus, you'll have project ideas to use in lots of ways other than just for re-sized embroidery.

Here are the basics you should know about the class:

When: July 9 - August 3 (four weeks)
Where: A private blog
What: 16 projects, 16 sets of tips and techniques, lots of embroidery patterns,
plus bonus ideas, giveaways and inspiration!
Cost: $40

This isn't a beginning Embroidery class (you should already know the basics when taking this), but it will be easy enough for even new stitchers to jump in.

Re-Sized

The supplies needed will be fairly basic. A complete supply list will be available to students shortly after they register, but here's a sample:

Quilting Cotton
Embroidery Floss
Felt
Yarn
Embroidery Hoops
Needles of Different Sizes
Plus some project specific items...

Because Re-Sized happens on a private blog, anyone, anywhere can register. Time zones are not an issue, and the blog will be available for at least a year after the class ends.

In addition to the instructional posts from me, I keep a close watch on all comments and questions so that I can provide the best possible experience for everyone. It's also a really fun way to connect with other people who love embroidery as much as you do!

Projects will be posted 4 days a week, with Wednesdays free for fun extras! Weekends are completely clear so you can catch up on your stitching. The good news about most of these projects being on the tiny side of embroidery is that they won't take ages to complete!
