Embroidered Snow Globe Ornaments with Kelley Richardson
Date: Saturday, December 12
Time: 10:00 am – 1:00 pm

Overview

Create charming embroidered snow globe ornaments entirely in the hoop in this festive machine embroidery class. Using the Sweet Pea Snow Globe Ornament pattern, you'll learn how to stitch beautifully detailed ornaments that are completely finished in a single hooping. These delightful ornaments make wonderful holiday decorations, thoughtful handmade gifts, and treasured keepsakes.

The pattern includes four unique snow globe designs, each created in a 4" x 4" embroidery hoop. Students can choose to make ornaments with either a fabric background or a clear PVC background for a classic snow globe effect. Kelley will guide you through the process, sharing tips for working with specialty materials and achieving clean, professional results.
