Hand Embroidered Journal Cover

Come and spend a relaxing couple of days immersed in creativity in which you will come away with a beautiful, unique hand embroidered journal to cherish. During the two sessions you will learn to perfect your hand embroidery skills while creating a beautiful floral design, before applying to an A5 plain journal.

On day 1 you will use a variety of traditional hand embroidery stitches to create a floral design on linen fabric. You will also have the option to add one or two embroidered words, you will have a few days between sessions to continue adding detail if you wish.
Once complete, session 2 will be spent learning to finish the fabric and apply it to the cover.
Your finished book can be used as a journal, sketch book, scrap book or photo album, perfect to keep for yourself or give as a unique gift.
