New Family Stitch Workshop
19th November, 2019
Join us for our Emoji Big Buttons Family Stitch Workshop on Wednesday 19 February. Learn how to stitch one of these eye-catching Emoji Faces and make it into a wearable button. The workshop is open to one adult and child (7+) or two children (7+) accompanied by a non-stitching parent or guardian. Suitable for all levels, this class is inspired by our current exhibition, Faces & Figures in Stitch.
During the class, you will learn how to create a button using hand embroidery stitches including Back Stitch, Stem Stitch, Couching and Appliqué. In addition, before you start stitching you will have a chance to view some of the pieces from our exhibition, including the amazing Blackwork portrait of our Patron, the Duchess of Cornwall.
The class will run from 10.30am-1pm at Hampton Court Palace, East Molesey, Surrey KT8 9AU.
