Beginner Level
This course will teach students the basics of counted cross stitch. How to change colors from the color listed in the diagram if you want. We will learn: Using needles and scissors safely To read a diagram Finding the starting point Threading the needle, starting a stitch. Back stitch, cross stitch, half cross stitch, straight stitch, 1/4 cross stitch, and 3/4 cross stitch Ending a group of stitches I learned to do counted cross stitch when I was a teenager. It's lots of fun! You can make some really cute items to give as gifts, and hang in your room. Christmas ornaments are great too. We may not finish the kit in class but students will know the stitches necessary to finish the kit. If an additional class is desired, I will be happy to send a coupon code for half off.

Hi! I hope you will enjoy my classes. I have a Bachelor of Science in Electronics Engineering Technology. I worked in the telecommunications field for 10 years. I have a Master of Arts in Teaching and Learning with Technology and just need to finish my dissertation for my Educational Doctorate in eLearning and Organizational Leadership. I formally taught English as a Foreign Language to children in China from home. I love teaching.
I have a wide range of interests and hobbies. I love gardening, sewing, needlework, crafts, singing, reading, and cooking. I am currently an Arkansas Master Gardener. I have 2 grown daughters, 3 granddaughters, and 1 grandson.
I have been singing and performing since I was 5 years old. I studied voice at Collin County College and Texas Women's University. I have taken private voice lessons and taught vocal coaching for over 15 years.
I was a Sweet Adeline for 15 years. I sang with the 5 time International champion Rich Tone Chorus for 3 years and Texas Harmony for 10 years. I have also worked with 2 new choruses in the Dallas area. I also sang in a quartet called Rambunxious for 3 years.
I have been a sub teacher in the public schools for over 17 years. I sub 2 days a week currently. I have tutored all subjects and grades. I love reading and read a book each month. One of my favorite subjects is history. I love reading about history and the lessons we can learn. I love to learn about the different states and countries on our wonderful planet.
Did I mention that I love teaching? I do.Reviews
