Illustrate your printed fabrics with your own design using the sewing machine and threads as drawing tools.

A sewing machine that can be adapted for free motion embroidery by dropping or covering the feed dogs.

A free motion foot for your machine, sometimes known as a darning foot. A universal version is available if you can’t find a branded one.

Sewing machine needles – I use 100/16 most of the time or jeans needles.

Threads; any you have. There will also be a selection of thread available at the workshop.
