In this class, students will learn the basics of hand-sewing and embroidery.  We will practice stitchery techniques to make fabric accessories. They will design artwork to aplique, sew on buttons and add embellishments to their work. The setting for this class encourages creativity as students develope their own projects and share ideas with the other students.
