A week after our monthly meeting we are running a full day workshop on Blackwork with Elizabeth Almond – there are places left so please contact Karen Hurrell or Sue Chisnall. Kits will be available to purchase on the day, so no need to worry about the correct fabrics and threads to bring.
Elizabeth has a website – www.blackworkjourney.co.uk and there is a link to her blog which provides lots of hints, tips and ideas about blackwork design – she also has a few patterns which you can download as freebies.
It should be a good day – I love the counted thread techniques and blackwork especially can be so effective.
The cost of the workshop includes fabric, thread and instructions for the designs being taught, so no need to spend more unless you want to!
ReplyDeleteFees for the workshop are £22 for members and £25 for visitors.
Either email myself or Sue, or ring Sue, to find out more and/or to put your name down for the workshop. (As I have moved, the number on the programme for me is incorrect.) Further details also available at the next meeting.
