HoopSisters - Nutcracker Wallhanging
The Nutcracker design is a beautiful wall hanging for any location in your home. In this class, you will be guided through the process on how to do this completely in the hoop. We will use a combination of lecture/demo and stitching. Do not be concerned if you have not done a HoopSisters design before. Day One will start with an explanation of the HoopSisters processes, terms, and techniques that you will need for stitching. Then you will stitch. Day Two will start with an explanation of trimming and assembling the blocks. Then you will stitch some more. You can trim and sew blocks together when you are ready.
** There is a special "bonus" design for this project that will be given to all class attendees. **
For this class, we will be using the Nutcracker design that can be purchased in the store. You will also need fabric for the project and Battilizer.
The fabric/color options for the Nutcracker are only limited by your imagination! You can use traditional colors or any other combination you want! I wonder what a Tula Pink nutcracker would look like? Just enjoy the process.
