Coaster
How to Design and Embroider your own Personalised Drink Coasters using Binka fabric
Course Summary
Join me to learn how to design and embroider your very own Drink Coaster Mats!
Choose to personalise them with your own initial or simple drawing, or why not create bespoke designs for the whole family? That way, you can give them as gifts to loved ones for their Birthdays, Mothers Day, Fathers Day or Christmas.
Recommended Age
The recommended age for children doing this class is 4 years and over. The fabric we use is called Binka which has holes in it already, so the needles we use to sew with don't have sharp points on them. Evidently, the younger the child, the more help they will need from their grown-up, especially when tying knots or threading their needle but once you get started, you will be surprised how quickly they pick up these skills.
P.S. All my classes are suitable for anyone who is keen to learn how to sew their own designs (so you will enjoy them just as much as a Grown-Up!) And if you choose to sew together with your child or grandchild, you will both reap the wellbeing and calming benefits that spending time doing embroidery brings.
