Cyber Workshops

Welcome to the Wellesley Needlepoint Collection’s Cyber Workshop Page.
Our staff is excited to help you improve your needlepoint by learning some new techniques in the comfort of your own home at your own pace.  We currently offer three cyber workshops but plan to add more in time.

Beyond Basketweave

Have you been stitching for awhile but never gotten beyond the tent stitch or basketweave?  This class will introduce you to decorative stitches, help you choose when to use them and teach you some basics – using laying tools & stretcher bars, how to strand and store thread and much more!

Upon purchasing the class, we will send you a package with all the supplies you need to complete the class – canvas, needles, threads, stretcher bars and complete instructions.  In that packet will be instructions and a password to enter the workshop with the button below.

Introduction to Beading & Sequins

Create sparkling canvases by adding Beads to your needlepoint. If you’ve never done any beading, this is the class for you!  You will learn about the different sizes of beads and some of the accessories that make your work easy.  Learn the different stitches that you can use with beads and when to use them!

You will receive everything you need to succeed with beading – beads,sequins, needles, a bead mat to keep them in place, tweezers, threads and a canvas on stretcher bars to practice with.  In that packet will be the handout with detailed diagrams and instruction and the access information to the video that you may view for as long as you like at your own pace.

Beards & Fur Workshop

In this cyber workshop you will learn many of the stitches we use to create glorious beards, hair and fur. In the comfort of your home at the pace that works best for you, you will learn how to use the shading technique, how to create french knots, french knots on a stick, turkey tufting, couching, random long and short, velvet stitch, the outline stitch and finally the bullion knot!

Upon purchasing the class, we will send you a package with all the supplies you need to complete the class – canvas, needles, threads, stretcher bars and complete instructions.  In that packet will be instructions and a password to enter the workshop with the button below.
