Course Description

Explore Goldwork embroidery at the Royal School of Needlework through a festive snowflake design.

Goldwork is prized as an embroidery technique for the way metal threads catch the light and create sparkle. In this three-hour course, you will use a selection of Goldwork materials and techniques to create your snowflake.

You will explore the different characteristics of Goldwork materials and learn how they are handled and applied within the design.

For the line work, you will work with Pearl Purl, learning how to couch it accurately to create the structure and detail of the snowflake.

Pearls will also be incorporated to add detail alongside the metal threads.

Across the session, you will gain an introduction to Goldwork and learn how different materials can be combined to create line, texture and detail.

What you will need to bring

Everything you need to complete your embroidery will be provided as part of the course.

We recommend bringing a notebook and pen to make notes throughout the day, along with any favourite embroidery equipment you like to use, such as your own embroidery scissors or needle threader.

You are also very welcome to bring your favourite mug for tea and coffee throughout the day.
