Class: Techniques in Overdyed Threads

April 13, 2011 by Denise Felton Leave a Comment

Janet Perry of Nuts About Needlepoint is offering a new class in using overdyed threads effectively. She says,

My new class, beginning in early June is designed to teach you many wonderful techniques you can use with these popular threads. Every thread used in this ornament is hand-dyed or overdyed. In the class you’ll learn how to:

  • make “stone” walls
  • use two similar colors to create (stucco)
  • ways to use these threads with decorative stitches
  • make an amazing (and easy) sky)

Not only will you learn about the techniques, you’ll try every one of them while making a delightful piece of needlepoint. Registration for the class is open only until May 23, so don’t delay. The class, including the canvas but no threads, is $50.

Go to Janet’s post for the link to the registration page.
