Learn how to create shading in Blackwork with this checkbook cover
Blackwork can be done on any countable ground, linen, needlepoint canvas, or evenweave fabric. It’s historic, easy and fresh.
In my new on-line class, beginning, August 1 (that’s in less than 2 weeks), you’ll learn Blackwork, whether on fabric or canvas, while making three charming accessories: a change purse, pictured above, a checkbook cover, and a photo album inset.
The class is done via email and Yahoo group, so you can take it at your own pace. You’ll pick your own fabric and thread, so the finished projects will be unique. In the Yahoo group there will be several bonus patterns created for the class.
In the class you’ll learn:
- history of Blackwork
- how to select the correct thread for Blackwork
- methods for stitching Blackwork on different types of grounds
- techniques for using overdyed and hand-dyed threads
- three methods to transfer designs
- shading
- different types of fill patterns
- Blackwork borders
The class is only $20. Participants will get all lessons, bonus patterns, and instructions in the Yahoo group and an opportunity to buy discounted ebook versions of my book, Blackwork Beauties, packed with more projects and patterns.
