The January Embroidery Club Project is up! Early, I might add. You can download it anytime. This is truly one of my favorite embroidery projects - it's framed embroideries. It's easy peasy. But, after the holidays, I think you need easy. Of course any embroidery design can be framed. But my faves are the pottery and the geometric shapes. They can be stitched in any color to suit your home's decor. The geometrics look amazing in black and white. I can see a series of these along a wall. It would look every bit as good as any painting or print. Be sure to show your club members other embroidery design collections that would look good framed. Stitch out some samples for the club demo. By the way, the frames are from IKEA. Sooo well priced, you can buy several to show.
This month we've also included a software class. Just download and teach - it's really simple, even for beginners. For your club members with kids or grandkids, these simple applique shapes are perfect for framing. Use some fun fabric prints for these, don't make them realistic. If you want to create your own designs, look in children's coloring books for simple shapes like our elephant and piglet. Then, follow our basic instructions to create your own appliques.
