Join Terri to create Genevieve, a beautiful Hardanger doily. Class time will be focused on the filling stitches, eyelets, blanket stitch, and lacy edge. The filling stitches include twisted spokes, dove\u2019s eye, and crossed dove\u2019s eye. Though lacy edge isn\u2019t often taught in intermediate-level classes, you will learn it as you stitch a petite insert in the V on the sides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will work the kloster blocks before class (approximately 10 to 20 hours) so we can focus on the Hardanger techniques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
