In the first half of this lesson, you will learn about using the Texture Hoop. Create unique embellishments on your project by adding ribbons and/or yarn to your embroidery. The clips included with the Texture hoop will hold your ribbons/yarn in place while embroidering. A special tool is included for removing those clips and a template to help place the embellishments. There are 6 designs with instructions included in the box. You will create the following 2 designs.
In the second half of this class, you will create a Trapunto embroidery from a SuperDesign. Trapunto is an Italian term for a style of quilting that creates designs in high relief. What trapunto means is that your finished design will show great contrast in the loft, giving it that lovely “embossed” appearance.
Supplies:
For class you will need: the mySewnet embroidery software, laptop, mouse
