Supplies Required:

Let's create an eye:       A slow stitch project.

This is a fun and very relaxing project, sit, chat, learn new ideas and techniques, experiment and complete a masterpiece all in one day.

Take a photo of your eye (or both eyes) with your phone, or get someone else to do it.

Then again you can use an  image from the internet.

Print it out a little bigger than the normal size of your eye, I printed the actual eye about 2” long.

Create a colour copy or have a copy on your phone or iPad. 

• Velum or tracing paper, just enough to cover the eye image.

• Fabric, for the background I used a piece of vintage table cloth, around 10” X 12”. I love to re-purpose fabrics.

• A fat quarter of cotton batting.

• For the back of the quilt I used a piece of an old embroidered table runner.

• I will bring some cheesecloth to class for you to use.

• A small embroidery hoop.

• A hand sewing needle.

• Black, white, flesh colour and mid grey embroidery threads along with threads that match the colour of your eye.

• Paint brush - I will have in class

• Container for water - I will have in class

• Inktense pencils - I will have in class.

• Portable light box if you have one.
