Teaching at Pennsic!

I have signed up to teach two classes at Pennsic XL this year:

1. 16th Century English Monochrome Embroidery- aka "Blackwork". This class will cover extant examples as well as techniques and characteristics that identify this art form. We will practice commonly used stitches and fills.

2. Late 16th Century English Polychrome Embroidery. We will look at extant examples, including coifs and jackets, and identify common techniques and characteristics. We may practice detached buttonhole and plaited braid stitch if desired.

Each class will be an hour long, and I requested they NOT be the same day as the A&S display, as I plan on exhibiting. I did request the 9AM- Noon spot, but we will see.

Hope to see you there!
