This class scheduled to begin on May 24th, 2013
Tandletons=Tatted/needle lace/buttons.
These little threaded works of art are just so much fun to make. I start with a base made from 1" silk bias ribbon, stuffed with Polyfil. Your Tandeltons will finish at about 1". All of the stitches are created with a milliner’s needle, cotton and silk threads, silk embroidery ribbon or beads. The techniques that will be covered in class are Traditional Embroidery, Tatted stitches, Needle lace, Beaded Stitches, and Silk Ribbon Embroidery stitches.
Skill Level - Intermediate: hand sewing, embroidery and beading knowledge helpful.
Lesson 1: This class will cover how to make the base, and ideas that you can use the finished buttons for. Embroidery in this class will cover Traditional Embroidery stitches: buttonhole stitch, French knots, lazy daisies; and Silk ribbon embroidery stitches: woven rose, lazy daisy with the feather stitch.
Lesson 2: This class will cover Tatted stitches: basic picot flowers and the closed double knot; Needle lace stitches: buttonhole stitch, woven star; and Beaded Stitches: continuous beading, single bead with detail design, stemmed beads, and flower petals. This class will also cover finishing techniques.
