Welcome to Embroidery Now
EMBROIDERY NOW
Welcome to “Embroidery Now” classes based at the Quaker Meeting House in Winchester. We run informal and friendly classes in a variety of hand-embroidery techniques.
The classes are small (normally no more than 10 per class) and run between 10:00 and 16:00, so you will get a fair share of the tutor’s time.
Unless otherwise stated, all classes are suitable for both beginners and the more experienced embroiderer as our tutors will tailor the teaching according to the needs of each student.
Our tutors are all professional embroiderers who also hold a teaching qualification, and the majority have been trained at the Royal School of Needlework.
See 2017 Classes for full details of our classes, and INFORMATION for directions and other details.
