Always fancied having a go at Punch Needle but not been sure where to start? Or have you needed up with a kit and it all just doesn’t seem to work or come together?

My Introduction to Punch Needle Class is for you.

Join me on Saturday 23rd May, 10-1.30pm at my studio at Deemouth Artist Studios Torry for a full introduction to this gorgeous craft.

I will take you through the materials and tools involved and how to match these for success. From there you will have the chance to pick a design, or do one yourself if you are feeling really creative. I’ll take you through different stitches and techniques to create a gorgeous punch needle piece.

All tools and materials required will be provided. You will come away with your finished piece in an embroidery hoop. We will be using Oxford Punch Needle tools in class and if you decide you love it, I will have a selection of tools and additional materials available to buy.

Full details and booking can be found via the link below. And if you have any questions or queries just get in touch.
