I love teaching!
I taught the second of my Embellished Embroidery workshops yesterday - a group of thirteen, which kept me on my toes! And why I love teaching? Because I love seeing people who have done no embroidery before look at what they have created, and be astonished with themselves
Here is one of the finished projects, and it's the lady's first ever embroidery:

That's great Mabel. How beautifully this is stitched - no wonder the lady was so delighted with what she had done. Well done to you for teaching them & being so patient.

Such a pretty piece of embroidery! The lady will go home with not only her project but the ability to create more and we all know how valuable this is! X-stitching is my yoga!

What a lovely group of ladies enjoying their lesson and what a beautiful first piece of embroidery has been done too. Great teaching Mabel and yes it is fun to watch someone learning a new skill and being amazed at getting it right.

Re: I love teaching!
All your students look absorbed in their work, and the finished product is excellent. Hard to believe this is a beginner. You must be a very fine teacher indeed!

They were all doing their very best and really concentrating! It just goes to show that our lovely hobby is really accessible and even beginners can create lovely pieces.

Re: I love teaching!
So glad everyone enjoyed themselves and I don't think I could do that well!!
Re: I love teaching!
Knowing how well you explain things in your instructions, I have never doubted that you would be an awesome teacher in person. When I win the lottery (if I ever buy a ticket), I would absolutely come to one of your classes.
