December 31st is the last day to register on-line for the Floral Glove Online University Course. If you haven’t checked this out yet, the course is an exploration of couched gold threads as used in the 17th century. That is thick gold threads, wires, pipes and purls that are held down onto the fabric with a separate thin silk thread. It is different from the Gold Master Class (registration until March 31st) which explores gold which is threaded in the needle and stitched through the fabric.
The project is a needlework tool etui that is shaped like a tabbed Stuart-era gauntlet. If you want more info on the course, go to the Online University page. I am using little movies to describe the classes – check them out.














Dear Trish,
Are you going to re-run these courses at a later date, so if we choose one over another, we won’t miss out? I want to do them all!

Megan -
I will rerun these in the future if there is a minimum number of people who request them later. But I have a really cool slate of online classes after this and so I am not sure how fast they would rerun.
Really looking forward to this project!
It’s a bit like being given a box of your favourite chocolates and being told you can only have one!
Chocolates! Mmmm! Would Tricia slip a truffle into each embroidery kit?
