SIlver and Pearls Needlepoint Ornament
This beautiful white and silver ornament combines the art of needlepoint stitches and beading in this intermediate level class.
An ordinary Styrofoam ball becomes a fairy-tale ornament with elegant beaded embellishments.
Stitches include the Brick, 8-Legged Eyelet, Herringbone, Smyrna Cross, Upright Gobelin, and a lovely medallion created with Oblong Crosses. Additionally, the student will use specialty fibers such as RibbonFloss and metallics – both ribbon and Kreinik braids. Beads include 3mm faux pearls, mirror-lined bugle beads, and faux crystal teardrops. As a final bonus, the student will learn how to create this enchanting round ornament from a flat, stitched piece of fabric and top it off with a fluffy bow.
Students will be guided through the step-by-step process of stitching the canvas, adding beaded embellishments, placing the canvas on the Styrofoam ball, and creating the wonderful bow on top, with the aid of very detailed diagrams and instructions.
A list of materials needed to stitch this piece will be provided after sign up.
