Course Description
This special course marks the first collaboration between the RSN and Winchester College, bringing together historic design inspiration and the highest standards of hand embroidery tuition.
Working closely with expert RSN tutors, you will begin by learning how to transfer your design onto fabric using the traditional prick-and-pounce method. Through guided demonstrations and practical tuition, you will explore how to handle fine silks, control stitch tension and create smooth, directional stitching. You will also develop an understanding of how to correctly prepare and manage silk threads before stitching.
RSN tutors will then introduce metal thread embellishment using traditional Goldwork outlining techniques with a contemporary twist. Using passing thread and purls, you will follow and reinterpret the flowing shapes and decorative lines inspired by the stained-glass windows, creating your own unique embroidered piece.
