Description

"And they did beat the gold into thin plates, and cut it into wires, to work it in blue, and in the purple, and in the scarlet, and in fine linen, with cunning work.”            Exodus 39:3

Goldwork is an ancient and enduring art form that is often seen on the priests' vestments, tapestries, linens and home decor.

Some embroidery or stitching experience will be helpful. 

Monica will guide you through the different styles of stitching, appliqué and finishing to create a beautiful heart.
