Creative Metalwork

'Stitching With Liz & Helen' is a collaboration between two Royal School of Needlework tutors, Liz Tapper & Helen Jones (www.stitchwork.co.uk), to bring the art of needlework to Exeter. We aim to provide classes in a range of techniques and for varying skill levels. Please do get in touch if there's a particular course you would like to see listed.

​

During the morning participants will learn about the variety of metal threads and some traditional ways of working with them. We will then move on to practise more creative approaches. Having "learnt the rules" we will look at how to break them! In the afternoon there will be an opportunity to either sample or create a small piece such as a bookmark or a button.

​

The materials will include everything you require to complete the project. You will need to bring your own embroidery scissors and you will be able to borrow ring frames on the day.

Please bring a magnifier and light (if needed).

​

This class will run from 10.30am-4.00pm at Exeter Community Centre, 17 St David's Hill, Exeter EX4 3RG, with half an hour for lunch.
