Machine Embroidery  101

Curious about machine embroidery? Seen nice embroidered products but not sure what it takes to make them? Machine embroidery is an embroidery process whereby a sewing machine or embroidery machine is used to create patterns on textiles. In this class, we will first start by looking at the different types of embroidery machines and what they can do. Then discuss supplies that are needed and the type of projects you can do. Each participant will be provided with a guide and resource list highlighting different places to get supplies and embroidery files that can be used. We will embroider hand towels with a design during the class.
