Royal School of Needlework

Private embroidery lessons

 Our Studio offers private lessons with a member of staff so if you are starting a project and just don't know where to begin, or you've got stuck half way through a piece and are unsure which is the best way forward, then a private lesson is perfect for you.  The private lessons take place in our embroidery Studio alongside other staff and work in progress.

Individual private lessons cost £45 an hour. (If you are a small group working on a community project or part of a church embroidery group we are also able to help with our expert advice)

Here's Debbie Hebert from Louisiana, USA having a private lesson at the RSN last week with tutor, Kate Farrer. Debbie is designing and embroidering a church altar cloth in whitework using satin stitch, raised stitch, eyelets and stem stitch to create the central Cross, wheat ears and grapes of her design.

"I cannot tell you how much I enjoyed last week at the RSN!  This second visit was even better than my first time in September.  You do not realize how much you have actually learned until you get home and pick up your needle and thread!  Kate was fantastic at helping me with designing the altar linens for my church.  That in itself was worth the trip."  Debbie Hebert - RSN Friend
