Join Me for a Beginner-Friendly Freehand Machine Embroidery Workshop!
I’m excited to invite you to a creative 3-hour workshop (10am–1pm) held in my brand new studio at Kiddington near Woodstock. This session is perfect for complete beginners—no prior experience needed!
We’ll cover the basics, from hooping your fabric and setting up the sewing machine, to learning how to ‘draw’ with thread and add colour using raw-edge appliqué.
Everything you need will be provided, including sewing machines. You’re very welcome to bring your own machine—just make sure it’s an embroidery (or darning) foot.
If you have any questions, please contact me via email at hello@mayidesign.co.uk.
Location:
2 Gate Farm,
Park Road,
Kiddington ,
Woodstock
OX20 1DB
Please note: my studio is located on the first floor and accessible via a flight of stairs.
