Description: 
Create a one-of-a-kind ornament just in time for the holidays in this DIY Pet Portrait Embroidery class! Suitable for beginners and experienced embroiderers alike, embroidery is a lovely way to relax and create something beautiful with your hands.

In this workshop, master embroidery artist Hannah Lamar will teach you basic embroidery techniques as you create an intricate, one-of-a-kind 3” linework/outline portrait of your beloved pet. You will receive a DIY embroidery kit including a custom pattern designed by Hannah and pre-printed on 100% cotton fabric mounted in a high-quality beechwood embroidery hoop, peacock embroidery scissors, needles, thread, hemp cord to hang your ornament, and a band-aid - just in case!

You will learn basic embroidery stitches, how to finish your hoop and some of Hannah's favorite tips and techniques for intricate and small linework embroidery. This is a great opportunity to learn a new craft or a rewarding hobby with expert support as you get started!

You will leave the workshop with your project well underway and take home a digital pattern guide and stitch-style library with links to video tutorials should you need refreshers as you complete your masterpiece at home. 

After registering, Hannah will be in touch via email to collect reference photos for your project. You'll need to have 1-3 clear photos of your pet's face - see the Reference Photo Guide for tips on choosing the best photo!
