Your Roots Are Showing
A very untypical basket of vegetables rooted to the earth awaits your creative stitching.
This Group Correspondence Class (GCC) features a basket of vegetables rooted to the earth. By employing traditional needlepoint stitches alongside three-dimensional work, you will create stylized vegetables in and under their basket. Using wire, padding techniques, stranded floss, and a variety of other interesting threads, you will learn needle weaving, how to attach stumpwork slips, and how to pad and stitch for effect and dimension. The class will discuss perspective and placement of individual elements in the design. Trellis patterns in the border and background finish off the design.
