About the Event
Join a friendly class to stitch a cuppa in blackwork. Using some basic blackwork techniques, you'll learn two different blackwork stitches, which are used to fill the cup and the steam. Learn about historic artform of blackwork in the process. The event is held on Zoom. You can provide your own materials - some linen/Aida and a broder thread. Alternatively, you can purchase a kit with Aida (quite a large picture) or on evenweave linen which has much smaller weave (and holes). The class is held on Zoom. Any questions, just e-mail admin@beingewe.co.uk

I have my own materials
This is for anyone who would like to provide their own materials. You'll need some aida or evenweave linen (eg Edinburgh linen) or equivalent. You'll also need some a broder thread, although you can use 1 strand of DMC black.
£15.00Sale endedSend me the Aida kit
This is for anyone who would like the Aida kit. It's easier to see what you're doing with the Aida, as the weave is much wider. It's also cheaper. However, it will become quite a large piece (about A4) and is not as sophisticated as using evenweave linen.

This ticket is for anyone who would like the linen kit. The linen kit is more sophisticated than the aida, but is has smaller weave and holes, so is harder to see.
