Ugly Bug Ball

I am happy to announce my newest class for Creative Spark, the Ugly Bug Ball!

If you know my work, then you know that I love to include spiders and webs, buttons, embellishments and more! This new class features six designs each for spiderwebs, spiders, and more of your favorite creepy crawling garden dwellers.

I started with several of the stitches that are included in my book, Creative Embroidery Mixing the Old with the New and then expanded on these to bring a host of creative webs, spiders and bugs to life.

The class features 24 different embroidery motifs that are worked with threads and embellishments including perle cotton, seed beads, sequins, buttons, and other sewing notions you might have lying around the house.

Throughout the class, I show you examples of how I used the stitch designs in my work. I provide basic instructions in the downloadable handout on how you can re-create four of the Stash Projects shown. The class also includes the Creative Embroidery Mixing the Old with the New eBook.

I hope that you come and join me at the Ugly Bug Ball!

Happy Stitching to You! ~Christen
