Silk Shading - A Technique Class

The exquisite rendering of beautiful images in threads is the hallmark of the Silk Shading technique. Practiced by hand embroiderers for centuries, we will take a look at some historical references and what is being stitched today as this varied technique has so much to offer.

In this class we will cover:

  • an introduction to Silk ShadingCBimage1
  • image selection
  • interpreting shading
  • colour selection
