Embroidery busy bees...

Recently tuesday and thursday embroidery classes have been embroidering on pvc.............a new medium and quite a challenge................with a little patience they upped the anti and delivered!.....lovely totes were produced,..... craft cotton was covered with pvc, embroidered on, then embroidered 3D flowers were  attached with stud jewels.

Product Info

At her recent workshops Sheila has used fusible wadding.
 We have now managed to obtain pre-packs of this for sale in the shop - it is made by Hobbs and it's fusible 80/20 (80% cotton, 20% polyester)
This is a great product for smaller quilts and wallhangings and completely eliminates the need for pinning and basting - can't be bad eh?

Those of you who use DMC stranded embroidery floss, may be interested to know that we are discontinuing this product and selling our stock off at 50p per skein - this is brilliant value - buy now whilst stock lasts.

Easy Peasy..................

................then it must be Lemon Squeezy.
In the last two weeks, the ladies attending the shop P & Q classes have all started on the Lemon Squeezy cushion............here are some pics of Ann, Valerie and Andrea who cut and pieced the cushion top in one session - well done ladies!!

Despite my constant nagging, I reckon they look like they are enjoying themselves!!
