Join me, Rachelle, for an in-person hand embroidery class at The Local Hand in Dorchester.

I’m excited to teach you the basics of hand embroidery - from how to set up your hoop to completing a sampler pattern. You’ll learn some of the most-common hand embroidery stitches. With the skills learned you’ll be able to complete beginner projects such as my “Features” pattern.

This class is ideal for beginners, whether you’re just getting started or you have some embroidery experience. Participants must be 16 or older. This is a one day event, running for 3.5hrs.

You can buy your ticket directly from The Local Hand’s website or Weft.
