Hand Embroidery

Hand embroidery was a necessary skill for all young ladies of refinement during the Regency Period and beyond. Ladies needed to know how to mark fine linens and household items with elegant initials.

This class will give stitchers a brief introduction to basic hand embroidery including a bit of cross stitch. Basic materials will be provided.
