Learn how to ‘draw’ with your sewing machine. Any basic domestic sewing machine can be used for free motion embroidery.

Be inspired to have a go on your own machine at home.
Advisory Note:Suitable for over 16’s only. No previous machine embroidery necessary, although experience on a sewing machine would be useful.
