Discover what embroidered borders, ribbon work, beads, buttons and embellishments can do to enhance a quilt! There is a long tradition of crazy quilt embroidery, and we’ll learn all about it while developing our hand stitching skills. Abby will supply fabric of printed quilt squares for us to practice on and use as our sampler, but if you have a quilt of your own you’d like to work on, please bring it along. Basic embroidery skills are helpful to have for this class, whether you’ve taken Introduction to Embroidery or learned how to hand stitch elsewhere. If you can thread a needle and have ever sewn on a button you should be just fine.

Supplies to Bring:

• $10 materials fee payable to the instructor at start of class. Cash, check,Venmo, PayPal, or credit card accepted.
• Beverage and Snack if desired.

Abby Langdon is a textile artist with more than 15 years of experience creating fiber art in fun, innovative ways. Her career began on the indie craft show circuit in 2008 when she opened her business, abbydid, where she designed and produced plush creatures, mainly monsters, which now dwell (harmlessly) in homes around the world and have been featured in quite a few publications. This focus eventually evolved into 2D and 3D fiber art that appeared in gallery shows, art fairs, and commercially commissioned settings. Langdon's techniques and focus are ever-evolving, and now include a millinery business of handmade hats and accessories incorporating traditional techniques. See more of her art at abbydid.com.
