About Christmas Hand Embroidery Decoration Workshop

Sorry, but this event has been and gone!

Learn the versatile craft of hand embroidery and make your own hand embroidered Christmas decoration with embroiderer Abigail King of ‘AbigailKingDesign’.

Embroidery is a simple yet effective technique that can be used to make unique and delicate designs. In this workshop, Abigail will guide you through the techniques to create a personalised decorative hoop, be it a Christmas wreath or a falling snowflake.

This workshop will teach you a range of different hand embroidery techniques and stitches, such as a running stitch, satin stitch and French knots, which you will then use with a mix of different yarns and shapes to create your own decorated Christmas wall or tree hanging.

This is a great way to learn a new skill and explore your creativity whilst making a beautiful decoration for a present or to keep for your home!

This workshop is ideal for beginners or those looking to refresh their embroidery skills and try out something new. All materials, tools, and equipment are provided, including an embroidery hoop, practice fabrics, and embroidery threads in a variety of colours, but please feel free to bring along any colour threads you would like to incorporate.

While we take every opportunity to ensure the details for Christmas Hand Embroidery Decoration Workshop are accurate, we always advise that you contact the event organiser before setting out for the event to avoid disapointment.
