Chrissie has been an avid crafter from an early age, first picking up a sewing needle at the age of five, and was taught embroidery by her grandfather. She is passionate about many crafts including quilting, textile and fibre arts, embroidery, stained glass, architecture and design.
Chrissie has also designed and created pieces for private commissions including an hotel and school library in Dubai. Having taught sewing, dressmaking, embroidery and quilting in the Middle East for eight years, Chrissie is enthusiastic about sharing and passing on her knowledge, experience and love of her crafts.
This Masterclass is for machine sewers with experience and understanding of their machine, although help will be given where needed. During the class you will learn how to use your zipper foot to make delicately thin bias stems, and how to use fusible bond to design and create stunning leaded stained -glass effect art with fabric.
Included in the class will be a stained-glass pattern template for you to take away and use again and again. Fabric kits are available to purchase on request and various tools for this technique will be on hand for you to try out.
Requirements: Sewing machine and zipper foot.
A list of materials and equipment to bring will be sent out prior to the class
