Modern Embroidery Foundations Course

The course is designed to take you from an excited newbie to a skillful maker in that craft. So we start with a beginner's guide and tutorials that teach you all about that craft and the beginner techniques. It's all taught in an easy-to-follow online course format, with bite-sized videos and pdf guides. At the end, you are given a pattern guide, so that you can practice and showcase all the wonderful new skills that you've learnt! 

You can always message or email me any questions you have I'm happy to help!

This will depend on your pace and whether you sit down to craft in longer sessions or short bite-sized chunks. But overall the foundation course will take you about 4-6 hours total (from starting to finishing your first pattern). Each pattern after that should be a bit quicker.

So plan to set aside a couple of hours each week for the course. And I think it will help if you give yourself a couple of uninterrupted (ha!) hours for your very first session as you learn the ropes.

You’ll need to buy all of your own supplies for each project. I’ll give you guidance on the best supplies to get your hands on, as well as great discounts in the Clever Poppy Shop (if that is where you choose to buy your supplies). 

Note that if there is a high demand on supplies, and therefore a delay in when you can get your hands on them – you can rest assured you can still access the materials for the entire course, and start as soon as your supplies arrive.

No, you can join us from anywhere in the world. My guides are general - in the sense that anyone worldwide can use them. In terms of the supplies, I’ll explain generally what supplies are needed, so that you can source these in your own country. The great thing about embroidery is that supplies are generally readily available in most craft stores worldwide.

You sure can!  I can’t think of a better gift to give! In future we will have gift vouchers available, but for now please just enter the recipient's details at the checkout when you purchase the course.

This offer is for lifetime of the embroidery foundations course.
