View map
£149.00
Often referred to as painting with a needle, silk shading is achieved using a variety of long and short straight stitches and colour blending to create an almost photographic quality.
This one day course will set you up with the basic skills needed to develop this beautiful technique in order to replicate the texture of fur. Taught in a small informal group, you will learn how to create split stitch, satin stitch and long and short silk shading using stranded cottons to create a simple Fox design.
You will also learn the theory behind the order to work the sections of the design in, what order to work the split stitch in and where it should be used for each area as you build up the design. The class kit will include all of the fabrics, threads and needles required to complete the project.
You can explore many more stitches on the RSN Stitch Bank.
Please note this is an onsite class which will run from 10am-4pm at Hampton Court Palace, East Molesey, Surrey KT8 9AU.
