Winter Rose Embellished Flowers Class with Maria Morrissey
In this class Maira will show you her style of embellishing and reading fabric prints. This technique can be used on a variety of prints, not limited to flowers but they do look amazing.
For her style the more options for embellishments the better, so you are welcome to dig deep in your stash and bring along all kinds of threads. Maria commonly uses pearl 5 & 8 Sue Spargo threads, which we carry in the shop but also 6 stranded embroidery floss can work too.
We have Maria's beautiful sample in the shop which she has worked into a Little Poppins Bag (we also carry this pattern range), it would also look stunning on cushions, runners and spicing up clothing.
