What you'll do

Join our embroidery specialists for more exciting workshops.

Saturdays 13th July and 10th August 2024 - 13:00 to 16:00. This class is taught in two sessions of 3 hours each (6 hours in total).

Goldwork has been taken to the next level with this contemporary design. This intricate rose contains fundamental goldwork techniques, but with intricate gold pearl purl to add depth. The shading brings highlighted touches to the design and contrasts with the lighter background.

This project was inspired by the traditional English rose. We will begin by introducing the gold pearl purl on the outlines. In the second stage, you will learn how to stitch the purl chips.

In the second session, we will finish the purl chips, including how to shade them in the leaves. You will be encouraged to ask the teacher any questions or to see a demonstration of other goldwork techniques. Homework between both sessions is recommended to allow for a smooth transition to class and to finish stitching the pearl purl.

Therefore, I would welcome any questions or comments in advance in order for me to prepare and demonstrate any techniques or provide answers at that time.

The aim of this goldwork class is for someone who has knowledge of embroidery (not necessarily goldwork) but would like to improve their skills to reach the next level.

The class is pitched towards intermediate students, and the limited class size will allow you to develop at your own pace with plenty of one-to-one time with the tutor.

The finished piece size is approximately 6.5cm (H) / 5cm (W).
