Intro to Embroidery: Needle Book

This is an introductory class which involves hand sewing construction and basic embroidery. We will be making a needle book, a traditional way to store needles.

We will assemble the book with a simple running stitch. We will decorate the cover, and possibly interior pages with basic embroidery.
