HCP2550 Goldwork 3D Candy Cane
View map
£100.00
In this Christmas class at Hampton Court Palace, you will learn all the elements to create two padded candy cane decorations which can be placed on your Christmas tree. During the first in person class, you will learn how to tack the screen-printed design onto the felt, use goldwork techniques to create the cane twists including pearl purl outlines, bright check chipping and spangles to work one of the canes. After the class you will have three weeks to allow you time to finish all the embroidery so that you have both canes completed. We will be using fine goldwork materials and size 12 needles in this class, if you usually use a magnifier please bring it with you.
Once both the canes are completed, they are then constructed into the final decoration which will involve padding with toy stuffing and using a curved needle to join a plain backing using similar techniques to box making. This will be demonstrated in a final session online via zoom.
This is an exciting new way of combining in person learning with a 2.5 hour zoom online class to form the hybrid approach required for this class. This will give students new to online classes the best of both options and a taster to online learning. Please note the online class will be recorded so you can refer to it if you are unable to complete the embroidery in time.
You can explore many more stitches on the RSN Stitch Bank.
Please note this is an onsite class which will run from 10am-4pm on Saturday 6 December at Hampton Court Palace, East Molesey, Surrey KT8 9AU.
