Does this sound familiar?

Sound familiar?

Maybe you've admired someone else's embroidery and thought you'd love to try it... but you're not sure you'd ever actually start.

Maybe you did a bit of cross stitch once, years ago, and you're just not sure if embroidery is something you'll be able to do. 

Or maybe you've never picked up a needle before and don't even know how to thread it (genuinely - this is the single most common thing my students tell me held them back!)

I had no idea where to start, but Sophie made it so simple. I went from knowing practically nothing to feeling really confident and LOVING it! It's absolutely worth every penny, and I know I found something I will love to do for a very long time!

— CAROLINA J

“This course is absolutely worth every penny!”

"I learned that I can embroider and overcome my limiting narratives of what I can or cannot do."

Before I took this course, embroidery felt too intimidating to start. I had not even successfully threaded a needle in my life! I bought the Starter Kit too, and was able to finish the entire course and stitch my first ever embroidery. If you’ve never embroidered like me, this course is a gem - an absolute kickstart.

OZZIE THREADED HER FIRST-EVER NEEDLE

Yes, it really works!

"I'd say to anyone thinking about joining: do it 1000%, it's so worth it."

The course taught me all the basics in so much depth. And, I learned to thread a needle so easily! It also taught me to go slow and remember it's not a race.

KARA STITCHED HER FIRST embroidery project

"I couldn't imagine a better teacher - Sophie explains everything so beautifully."

I truly went from 0 knowledge to LOVING embroidery! I wanted to learn how to embroider but had no idea where to start. The Introduction to Embroidery Course made it so simple and I was really surprised at just how much I learned!

I had only completed a small embroidery project before and only knew how to do straight stitches. Sophie has a very clear, gently paced teaching style and each stitch is broken down in an easy to follow way. The clear tutorials and encouragement made a big difference and I was blown away by the finished project

— DENICE M

"The Introduction to Embroidery Course is worth the investment."

Exactly what I needed to get back into a craft I first dabbled in as a girl in the 1960s. Before, I struggled to find everything I wanted to learn in one place, but this course provided everything. Sophie teaches in such a calm, reassuring manner, which gave me the confidence to take things slow

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take?

I already know the embroidery basics. Is this for me?

Not quite - this course is your starting point if you've never picked up a needle, or got stuck trying to. Instead, our membership Bloom Embroidery Academy is for once you've got a first project done and want to keep stitching, learning + improving.

What supplies do I need?

You'll need a hoop, some fabric and embroidery thread. Once you enrol, you'll get a discount code inside for our Starter Kit if you'd like everything sent to you!

What if I get stuck?

You can re-watch any lesson as many times as you like - there's no clock running and the videos aren't going anywhere! You can also reach out to Sophie on Instagram or via email.

Do I need to be artistic, creative, or have a bunch of patience?

Not at all - this is about learning technique, step by step. Most students are just as surprised as anyone that they can actually do this!
