Embellish, Stitch, Felt: Using the Embellisher Machine and Needle-Punch Techniques

Take everyday clothing, shoes, and hats to a new level with hand-applied or machine-worked fabric and fiber embellishments. Recycle fabrics into items of unique and extraordinary beauty using hand-held needlepoint; use an embellisher machine to build up layers of color in the fabric; and learn to create all new accessories to wear and enjoy. Projects include a “glazed chintz” bag, richly colored patchwork pillows, and many others. There’s instruction on coloring and dyeing fabrics, creating and using texture, working in three dimensions, and even creating your own cloth.
