Stitching Series: Wool Egg Ornaments
Each ornament begins as a handcrafted felted wool egg, ready for your creative touch. In this workshop, you’ll embellish eggs using wool appliqué and simple embroidery stitches, layering texture and dimension to create pieces that feel uniquely your own. Whether your style leans simple and understated or richly detailed, this workshop welcomes all skill levels in a relaxed and encouraging setting.
Your finished eggs can be displayed on a seasonal tree, nestled into a loved one’s Easter basket, or kept as meaningful heirlooms to enjoy year after year. Decorative display trees will also be available for purchase, offering a beautiful way to showcase your ornaments throughout the season — or even year-round.
You’ll leave with a collection of finished ornaments and the confidence to continue stitching and embellishing on your own.
Meet the instructors!
Sue's youngest daughter, Aimee, has worked for the business since 2015. She is the CFO, head of human resources, manages Sue’s schedule, as well as, the many responsibilities that fall under ‘front of house’. Recently, Aimee has fallen in love with hand piecing through completion of many of Jen Kingwell's quilt designs, but follows in her mother's footsteps as a jack of all trades and master of embroidery. She's assisted Sue in many of her teaching endeavors, and is looking forward to teaching more classes on her own and continuing her own learning.
Abby came to us through a high school work program in 2014, and we welcomed her back full time in 2017. She's a jack of all trades, having moved through departments, finding a home as our shop manager as well as coordinating Sue's Ohio classes. Over the past few years, Abby's embroidery skills have flourished through making shop samples, teaching beginner embroidery classes, and even designing her own pincushion kit! She enjoys working face to face with customers and students, and has a great eye for color and design.
