cls: Sue Spargo Pinyon Pincushion class - May 28, 2025 01:00 pm
Join us for a delightful afternoon creating this adorable pincushion designed by Sue Spargo! This whimsical Pinyon bird features a variety of wool applique' and embroidery techniques – packing lots of learning into one little project! This beginner-friendly project is a wonderful introduction to working with wool and decorative stitches. In this 3-hour workshop, instructor, Callé Friesen, will guide you through every step of assembling your project and demonstrate the decorative stitches featured in the sample. By the end of the session, you’ll have completed the applique' portion of the project, practiced all of the stitching techniques and be ready to add the finishing embroidery touches at home with confidence. This project is a perfect showcase for Woodside’s stunning Sue Spargo line of hand-dyed wools. As a bonus, all workshop participants will receive a 15% discount on project materials and tools – so it’s the perfect time to stock up and start stitching! Spaces are limited, so don’t miss your chance to make something beautiful and brighten your winter days. Sign up today and let’s get stitching! Class cost includes the kit and embellishments but not the thread. This class is an introduction to the stitches used in Sue Spargo’s pattern along with a step-by-step demonstration of how to assemble the final pincushion project. Since the decorative stitching is completed before assembly, participants will not complete the project during our 3 hour class, but will have a good start! Calle will stay in the studio classroom for the afternoon to stitch along with anyone who wishes to continue working on their project.

We will explore techniques such as tiling projects, Quilting in the Hoop and much more. You will advance your learning & skills in no time! This will be an opportunity to try out new projects and more difficult embroidery techniques. This is a Hands on Club and embroidering during our Club Sew days! This is not just a lecture, so bring your Embroidery machine and lets start creating and having fun! There will be someone at the shop to help bring your machine in from your car if you need help. (When you bring your machine to the shop and you need help with your machine please lets us know) By joining our Machine Embroidery Club you also get LOTS of benefits. You will get 15% off your Isacord Embroidery thread, OESD stabilizers and patterns when purchasing them through Woodside. You will be the first to be able to pre-purchase new designs before they are released to the public. We will also have "Show and Tell" for what we are working on. Friday is work on your own but support is there if needed. The first 1/2 hour on Saturday will include a discussion on new designs, threads or stabilizers that have just been released as well as learning a new technique. We also provide a light lunch on Saturday. The Machine Embroidery Club Cost is just $75 for the year. We are meeting on a Friday and Saturday of each month based on the first Saturday of the month (example: if 1st is on Saturday we will also meet on Friday of the previous month) except December. We try to meet on the Second Saturday. Please sign up online for each month you plan to attend as seating is limited. There is a nominal $10 charge for each retreat month.
Cost: $ 10.00
