Course Details

Join me for a gentle morning of hand stitching and learn all about couching. This wonderful technique is one of my favourites and involves laying down threads on top of fabric and then stitching them down using a variety of techniques. Couching offers infinite possibilities in variety and is quick and easy to do. Focusing on quality of line, we will begin by looking at where to find inspiration for design in the natural environment. Then we will try out a range of different threads and other interesting materials to practice couching down. We will also look at the variety of methods you can use to attach the line to the background fabric using different types of stitches. You will make a beautiful small sampler of techniques and leave feeling inspired by the possibilities that couching has to offer. All materials supplied, this workshop is suitable for beginners in hand stitching, or those with some experience who are looking for inspiration and the chance to experiment further.
