English Smocking Ornament
led by Vicki
We will learn to make a smocked ball ornament similar to those in the photo. Vicki will introduce basic smocking stitches (Cable Stitch and Trellis Stitch) which you can use to embellish the ball in your chosen threads. Vicki will have models available at the September meetings for you to study.
Signups for the project will start in August and continue through mid-September. You can put your name on an interest list at the August and September meetings or contact Eileen at ecgillyxstitch@gmail.com to add your name.
Kits will include a pre-pleated piece of fabric, a styrofoam ball, needle and ribbon. Participants should bring 3 skeins of DMC floss in colors of their choosing. A small kit fee (about $2-3) will be collected from participants at the October meetings.
In addition, we will be talking about the Star Sampler Block 6 featuring Eyelet Stitch and a pulled Step Stitch Filling.
