發揮創意並學習刺繡 6 週現場課程

What will be taught?  
In this live class, students will learn and practice 12 basic embroidery stitches and use what they have learned to create a their own beautiful embroidery design. If the weeks posted do not work for your learner, please feel free to reach out to me. I am happy to add sections to meet the needs of families. 

Topics and Course Structure: 
Each week I will demonstrate 4 basic embroidery stitches. I will explain each stitch in detail as well as record myself completing each stitch so that students may go back and review throughout the week. I have also created this class as a flex course if that works better for your schedule. 

Specific topics that will be taught each week. 
Week 1 - Students will be able to thread the needle, set up the fabric in the embroidery hoop, and complete 4 basic stitches (Running Stitch, Back Stitch, and Stem Stitch)
Week 2 - Students will be able to complete the Split Stitch, Chain Stitch, Blanket Stitch, and Straight Stitch.
Week 3 - Students will learn fill stitches like the Satin Stitch, and the Long and Short Stitch. The Lazy Daisy, Bullion Knot and the woven wheel will also be demonstrated. 
Week 4 - Students will review and practice any of the basic stitches. They can begin planning the design for their individual project.
Week 5 - Students will use the embroidery stitches they learned to create their own embroidery design. 
Week 6 - Students will complete their designs

I am also available to correspond with students using the classroom discussion board. I will always respond to students and families within 24 hours. 

How will I teach?
For this course, I will do a live demonstration of each stitch as well as upload prerecord a detailed demonstration of each embroidery stitch. Students may ask questions through the classroom discussion and I will respond within 24 hours.  

Learners do not need to begin this course with any prior knowledge. I will begin the course explaining how to thread an embroidery needle, knot the thread and how to load the fabric into the embroidery hoop. 

As a high school Family and Consumer Science teacher I have found that many of my students find embroidery relaxing and can sometimes help with students self-care routines. Students take pride in learning a new skill, following through and completing a project.
