Embroidery Class on Saturday

I took an embroidery class yesterday and it was great. There were twelve students in all and we had a great time. This was a beginning embroidery class and it covered 16 different stitches. I have dabbled in embroidery in the past but never had lessons. I just read it from a book and tried to do the stitches. I have done some redwork but it was just simple stitches. The 16 stitches that we learned were all basis stitches but it is really alot better to see how the stitches are made instead of just looking at diagrams in a book. Here is a picture of the little wallhanging that I am working on. I hope to have it finished this week but I am really enjoying the stitching process. Til next time....
