This class is part of the RSN International Summer School 2025

This is the next design inspired by one of the stars of the Royal School of Needlework collection, the 4 panelled crewelwork room screen. The screen has been a source of inspiration for RSN students for many years and is particularly notable for its long and short stitching and trellis work. It is worked on linen twill fabric using crewel wools in many colours, and each panel features a tree of life design with a beautiful bird.

Our design has a lovely little bird similar to the one that sits in first panel of the original screen. He is surrounded by flowers, leaves and pretty butterflies that echo those in the other panels, and is worked on linen twill using Appletons crewel wools. This is the ideal piece if you want to perfect your long and short stitch and trellis stitch as these are used most often within the design, but you’ll also cover: whipped chain, stem stitch, fishbone, closed fly, french knots and bullion knots.

Suitable for intermediate and advanced stitchers.

Design size - Approx 22cm x 32cm

Equipment needed - embroidery scissors, an 18 inch slate frame, or could work with a 10 inch ring frame but this is not ideal.

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