What’s Included
-
Join nationally recognized needlepoint teacher, Stefanie Chase of The Joy of Needlepoint, for A YEAR IN BACKGROUNDS, a six-month class series devoted entirely to expanding your options for stitching backgrounds.
Each month, Stefanie will virtually teach 4 stitches selected specifically for backgrounds- 2 open stitches and 2 closed stitches. Along the way, you’ll learn new techniques, experiment with different threads, and explore how stitch and thread choices can change the look and feel of a background-all while learning, stitching, and building community together.
Throughout the series, you’ll create your own personal background resource book complete with stitch graphs, stitched samples, and your own notes, giving you a reference you can return to long after the series ends.
