Is this the right course for me? This workshop is for learners of all abilities. Ideally you should work with your own machine however; there are machines you can use at the centre if this is not possible. What will I learn? You will work with a variety of fabrics having a go at layering and reverse applique/cut work, zentangle doodle stitching with the machine and improving techniques in foiling on velvet. How will I learn? Observing demonstrations, looking at examples, group discussions and plenty of practical work. You will make small samples along the same theme that will ultimately work together as a collection. Will I gain a qualification? You will not gain a formal qualification but you may request a Certificate of Attendance from your tutor, to be given out at the end of the course. What can I do next? You may wish to join a longer Textiles course. What do I need to bring to the classes? Sharpe embroidery (snippy) scissors, a variety of threads and some spare bobbins for your machine would be useful. A 20cm embroidery hoop may be used, you will feel safer using one to begin with. A 'Frixion' pen which you can purchase from Paperchase, Tesco or WH Smiths. It is a biro that disappears with the heat of an iron. The tutor will supply basic fabrics to use and work with during the classes for a small charge. Can I talk to someone about my course before I start it? It is usually possible to put you directly in touch with the tutor if a member of the Community Learning MK staff cannot answer your query.
