Metalwork & Silk Shading – Art Nouveau Sprig

 

This class offers a great balance of an introduction to both Silk Shading with Surface Stitch and Metal Thread techniques, including couching, plunging and tying back, chips, spangles, soft string padding, cutwork & pearl purl application.

The design is inspired by the curvaceous scrolling lines of art nouveau metal work and the beautiful shades of French enamelling.

You can explore many more stitches on the RSN Stitch Bank.
