Description: Modern embroidery is more than just flowers and butterflies. Moons and other celestial themes are popular and easy to do in basic running stitch.  In this class you will learn to embroider a simple moon and stars pattern in super-sparkly DMC Mouliné Étoile embroidery floss on pre-cut fabric and assemble it as an envelope-back throw pillow.  You will receive hands on instruction and written instructions on additional beginner stitches during this two session course.

Note: A materials fee of $15 should be paid directly to the instructor at the start of the first class.
