Watch My Garden Grow Stitch Along
As you spring into spring, join Instructor Jess McDonald for this bunny-tastic stitch along! “Watch My Garden Grow” by Kathy Schmits is a beginner-friendly project. The finished size is 6” x 6” and can be used as a quilt block, a patch, or finished in a hoop or frame. Perfect for Easter!
Jess will walk you through stitching this adorable piece using a variety of hand embroidery stitches including stem stitch, lazy daisy, french knots, and more! The design will be pre-printed on a sheet of sticky solve, however, students can transfer the design with a marking tool of their choice if they prefer. Students will be shown how to finish off their piece in a hoop.
Students must purchase a copy of the PDF prior to the start of the class. Please purchase here: https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/1237898434/74-watch-my-garden-grow-hand-embroidery
