Beginner Friendly Embroidery Samplers with Lyras

As long as we have had embroidery, we have had samplers: small hand-stitched textiles that act as both a record and a reference for stitches.

In this beginner-friendly class we will be creating our own samplers with basic stitches that you can take home, add to over time, and refer back to again and again- acting as a living document for your skills and exploration!

This class is designed for anyone in mind, from skilled needleworkers to complete beginners.

• Essential Tools and Materials

• How to use an Embroidery Hoop

• Threading & Handling Sewing Needles

• Beginner-Friendly Stitches
