After creating a 2019, 2020 & 2021 thread journal of my own, I wanted to share the skills that I have learnt. I have collated my monthly released focus sheets and classes to help you to learn a new technique each month, building your repertoire of embroidery skills and enabling you to create your very own Thread Journal.
COMPLETE COURSE
The thread journal instructions comes with lots of detail, instructions, diagrams, pictures and ideas collated into a 48 page course. Step by step directions guide you every step of the way and is ideal for any experience level, including beginners. If you’re anything like me, videos are by far the easiest way to learn. As us crafty folk tend to be more visual learners, I have also created a series of fully narrated video tutorials to accompany the instructions.
*NEW BONUS CONTENT* now includes a playlist of full length thread journal classes (worth an additional £180). You can find the hyperlink to the playlist on page 1.
