Hardanger at Summer School

In January 2018 I will be teaching my Early-style Hardanger Biscornu at the Embroiderers Guild NSW Summer School.

Early-style Hardanger Biscornu
with Yvette Stanton
Fri 19 and Sat 20 January 2018 10.00am to 3.30pm
76 Queen St, Concord West, Sydney.

In this class, for intermediate to experienced Hardanger stitchers, we will explore some of the stitches that were used in Hardanger in times past but have fallen out of regular usage. The biscornu will require some accurate satin stitch prior to class so that we can concentrate on the fun pulled and drawn thread work parts in class! The biscornu will not be finished within the class, but instructions will be provided for its construction. Alternatively you can use your imagination to finish it in any other way that you like.

We will be working on 36 count linen, so make sure you bring appropriate magnification and lighting. A kit will be supplied, including linen thread and linen fabric.

You can book a place in this class by contacting the Embroiderers’ Guild NSW. More information can also be found on the guild website. If you are interested in this class, I would register quickly, so as not to miss out. There was a lot of interest in the class at the Sydney Craft and Quilt Fair.
