Class Notes






On Sunday I taught a class on making this embroidered face. Nine really great women took the class and I think everyone had a good time, at least I did! I was inspired by the willingness of these women to play with my design, make it their own and forge ahead. Here are some pictures of the class as well as their partially completed faces. Note, Pat, in the wheel chair, had recently broken her leg, but came in pain to play with her fellow doll makers. Thanks for making the really hard extra effort Pat!

Embroidered Face Class


On Sunday I will be teaching a class at Quilting Adventures in Richmond, VA on embroidered faces for dolls. It will cover the basic materials, how to transfer designs, basic stitches and how to vary the face pattern. I have come up with a new design, which is pretty basic but will be great for learning. It is similar to the one shown in this photo but simplified. I have eight people signed up for the class which is great. It should be fun. The face will be a perfect addition to the class I will be teaching at the end of the month on designing dolls around a theme.
