For August's Embroidery Club session we will restyle, or "upcycle", a denim shirt. Look in the back of your closet for a shirt that needs another chance at life, or make a trip to the thrift store, the outlets, or a yard sale.

By using raw-edge applique to add a flower to your shirt, you will also learn to use templates for placement and how to place crystals on the flower. Then you will use the button sew-on foot to replace the buttons. If flowers are not for you, there will be outline designs to choose from also.

Bernina Embroidery Club meets monthly for consistent growth in Bernina machine embroidery skills. Each month we complete a different project so you can practice using the many features of your machine’s embroidery module. Some months we do only embroidery, and other months we finish the project using the sewing side of your Bernina to further your education on your machine. We recommend bringing your own Bernina to learn on, but if needed, you may use a Classroom BERNINA 590.

Available seats listed below are for one session of this year-long club. This month’s project is appropriate for a confident beginner in Bernina machine embroidery. A required supply list will be sent with your registration confirmation.
