Course Description
Punch Needle Work Embroidery is a unique technique that involves using a special needle to create textured, raised designs on fabric. The process requires punching the needle through the fabric to form loops of thread, which can be adjusted to create varying textures and depths. This technique is often used to create bold patterns, such as florals, abstracts, and landscapes.
Students learn to master different types of yarns, fabric types, and how to work with various stitch patterns to achieve a plush, textured finish. The course emphasizes creativity and precision in design. Graduates can apply punch needle work to wall hangings, cushions, apparel, and custom home decor projects.
