Introduction to embroidery in relief
“Thank you very much for choosing this course! I hope you liked it and that you have learned and practiced all the stitches we saw. Remember that the learning process is long. Achieving a perfect embroidery takes practice, time and a lot of patience. To make it more personal, once you manage the stitches well, I propose as a challenge that you apply them in different letters, that you write new words and that you make your own designs. In this way, you will leave your comfort zone and you can develop your creativity. The more you explore, the more discoveries you are going to make and you are going to learn a lot of unexpected "mistakes". I can assure you that you will be very surprised. I would love to see your progress and your textile experiments and, surely, your classmates as well. The idea is that, together, we can contribute to each other's work and give each other encouragement. Do not forget that I will be aware of what you are uploading and I will be there to guide you. See you on the forum! ”
