Find out how easy it is to start embroidery with wool, even with no prior experience. Grace from Beyond Measure will talk you through the basic materials and tools, plus demonstrate some easy stitches to get you started. She’ll talk about transferring designs, fabric to use and different types of wool threads, plus we’ll look at some of her favourite resources, kits and books.
Grace will then show you some creative ways to display your finished pieces - including soft furnishings, accessories and wall hangings.
This talk was filmed as part of our virtual Mill Open Weekend, Summer 2026. Thanks so much to Grace for joining us and sharing her expertise with us.
