Schoolhouse Sampler: A Daily Embroidery Practice

Challenging us to get playful and messy within the supposed neatness of embroidery, Rebecca Ringquist, a Portland, Oregon based artist, designer, educator, and author, returns with an all-new embroidery design. In her fourth sampler class, Rebecca shares some of the history of embroidery as we stitch along on her Schoolhouse Sampler. She begins by teaching seven basic stitches, showing variations on stitches from previous classes and new stitches done in pattern squares, borders, letters and numbers.
