À propos

Home is where the heart is in this 3-day workshop. Hook a likeness of a home near or dear to you or someone important to you. A home can be much more than just brick & mortar; it can be a place full of warmth and fond memories of childhood, a place you raised your family, or a doorway you just passed through many memorable times. Topics covered in this workshop include making a pattern, how to hook key architectural elements, the importance of directional hooking, selecting textured wool fabric that will hook into perfect bricks & stone, simplifying detail and framing and finishing your work.
