HAND STITCHING CLASS: ROOTED OR TINSEL

When you purchase one of our new Sue Spargo Kits (Tinsel or Rooted), you can attend a hand stitching class where you'll learn fancy hand-embellishment stitches while you create one of these beautiful sampler quilts. Both wool applique quilts finish at 20 ½” x 23 ½”.
In the class we will discuss threads, needles and basic wool applique along with embroidery stitches.
The class will meet the 2nd Tuesday from 1:00 - 3:00 each month for 6 months. It will run from September 2024 - February 2025. The purchase of either the Tinsel or Rooted kit ($154.99) is required to attend the class. A hand stitching book is also required. We recommend either the Creative Stitching by Sue Spargo or the Right/Left-handed Embroiderer’s Companion (sold separately).
Both kits include the pattern for the quilt, hand-dyed felted wool for the applique, wool and cotton for quilt background, cotton fabrics for embellishment and cotton binding. The quilt backing and threads are NOT included in the kit.
Many of you will already have some of the threads to make the quilt. We have a beautiful selection of threads available in the shop and online if you need to purchase them.
Thread kits are also available. They contain all the thread recommended by Sue Spargo in either the Rooted or Tinsel patterns. If you are registered for the class, you can purchase any of these threads for 15% off the retail price. The retail prices of the thread kits are listed below, as well as a link to purchase:

Wool included in these kits has been hand-dyed and felted, therefore color and mottling may vary from piece to piece and kit to kit. This is not considered a flaw and is part of the inherent beauty of working with hand-dyed wool.
Due to the custom nature of this kit and included class, discounts do not apply. Kits are non-refundable.
