Desire to know how to create more depth in an embroidered image?
Do you also love architecture?
Architectural threadpainting teaches you to go a step deeper with your stitchery.
Thanks to painting fundamentals you will soon be able to translate brush and paint techniques to needle and floss.
In more detail:
✅ How to know which number of strands to use for various surfaces
✅ How to know which colour to use and when to shift nuance (and why?!)
✅ How to create depth, life and movement in an otherwise 2D image
The course is structured as an in-depth stitch along, during which you will gain thorough understanding of both the practical HOW as well as the theoretical WHY of each step of the process.
Thanks to direct practise on this design from Barcelona (included as a downloadable pdf!), you will achieve long-term knowledge
AND
be able to apply your skills to other architectural threadpainting work in the future as well.
✅ Beginner Friendly
Don't worry if you don't know how to paint or embroider.
Because this course will be your perfect guide introducing you to both painting theories and stitch techniques.
Whether you are a complete beginner or just new to the Architectural thread-painting style, this course will bring you new skills and great creative joy.
At the end of the course you will not only have spent quality time stitching but you will also have skills for life and a one of a kind artwork to hang on your wall and feel proud of.

What some students are saying...
"I have always hated satin stitch until I saw your wonderful and quick tip! In the past when I would work the satin stitch I would get this big contracted lump where the fabric pulled, ugh. Now the fabric lays flat and it looks very neat and I am not frustrated, instead I am happy with the way it looks. The added bonus is saving precious embroidery floss in the process. Thank you so much for thinking outside of the box and sharing your knowledge, tips, and tricks to make embroidery fun, including the dreaded (for me) satin stitch"
