Weighted Gusseted Stand-Up Class (Square or Rectangle)
Pieces should not be larger than 6 inches on any side
Prerequisites: Students should have taken a square ornament class with Lita prior to signing up. The classes can be online or in person ,but they should only sign up for the class if they are comfortable with making/sewing on cording and lacing their canvas around boards.
Students will need to bring:
- Square or rectangle canvas to finish smaller than 6x6
- Blank canvas can be substituted if students don’t have an ornament ready to finish or if they want to practice before finishing a stitched piece.
-Perle cotton in the colors they want for their cording (included in class cost)
-Backing fabric. Dupioni Silk, stretchy velvet, or quilting cotton recommended. Thick fabrics can be hard to sew through and should be avoided.
-Gusset fabric or ribbon for the gusset- 1 yard minimum recommended. If using ribbon, they will want ribbon that is 1.5 inches wide.
-Students should make cording ahead of time and bring it to class. Students will want to make double cording, as one strand is needed for the front AND the back. Lita will have a cording station set up in case students don’t have the required tools at home.
-Students should lace the canvas around the front board ( ONLY THE FRONT) like they would for an ornament and bring it to class.
Please note all classes are non-refundable.
