We offer embroidery classes for everyone in the beautiful surroundings of Hampton Court Palace.
In small, friendly class groups with highly skilled and experienced tutors you will learn to work traditional techniques and discover the subtlety of embroidery and its potential as an art form. The classes are mostly practical and "hands-on" whether stitching or art and design.
One, two or three day Classes are held regularly throughout the year at weekends and on week days during the Easter and summer vacations. Classes cover a wide range of techniques including design and painting.
Class Times: 10.00 am to 4.00pm; Lunch 1.00pm to 2.00pm
Refreshments: Morning coffee break at about 11.10am. Tea, coffee and soft drinks provided. Bring your own lunch to eat at the RSN or in fine weather picnic in the gardens. The Palace Coffee Shop and Tiltyard Restaurant are available for meals and snacks.
Materials: Designs and packs of materials are provided for all classes. The cost of these kits is additional to the class fee and varies depending on the technique. Kit costs range from approximately £12.00 to £35.00, the more expensive kits contain metal threads.
Equipment: Needlework frames and other equipment will be available for sale in the class. Some items will be available to loan.
