Join Hope for some fun filled classes. Look for details in an upcoming issue of Sew Beautiful magazine or on the Martha Pullen link below.
Refined Embellishment School ~ Friday July 30th ~
Hope is a master at embellishments and by the end of this hands-on-school you will know the secrets that make her work so delicate and dainty. Many of the techniques used for this school have been featured in her magazine articles or in the schools that she teaches for Martha Pullen Company. She invented “Lace Shaping in the Hoop” so it is only fitting that a touch of machine embroidery will be included in the school. Each student will receive a notebook with pre-printed technique pages & a lovely kit containing the finest fabrics, laces and trims. Hope will use a colorful Power Point show to guide you through each of her specialty techniques. Let Hope show you how to “Romance Your Wardrobe” by helping you master some of the following embellishments:
1. Corded Entredeux Hemstitches
2. Embroidered Cathedral Lace Windows
3. Fabric Folding Pen Tucks
4. Roll & Whipping Laces & Trims to Fabric
5. Slotted Decorative Seams
6. Easy Bias Edging
Leave with an invaluable notebook filled with techniques, pictures and step-by-step directions which will inspire you through the next decade.
