About
Explore embroidery on wool by creating your own Bloom & Mushroom. You will create two 6 ½”x4” pieces using wool, threads and a variety of stitches.
You will start by selecting and shaping your wool pieces, which you will pin in place and anchor down with whip stitch. You will then learn a range of embroidery stitches to decorate your piece:
- Back stitch
- Bullion knot
- Coral stitch
- Drizzle stitch
- Double threaded backstitch
- Fly stitch
- French knot
- Woven circle
You'll learn all of the stitches in class and, if needed, complete your project at home.

Nathalee Lowrie
Nathalee Lowrie’s passion for textiles began as a child, learning textile arts from both of her grandmothers. Using a needle and thread fueled an instant love affair with color, the suppleness of fabric, and the movement of a needle. She graduated with a bachelor's degree in education/art specialization from North Texas University. She also trained at the Madeline Island School of the Arts in Wisconsin, studying under Sue Spargo and Katie Pasquini Masopust. Her pieces have been accepted into several juried shows and galleries.
