Anita’s University 501: In the Hoop
Delve into the world of embroidery with Anita’s University 501: In the Hoop! Discover a multitude of possibilities, as you create unique, fun, and functional projects entirely within your hoop. This class offers new and exclusive projects that will expand your skills and creativity. Join us in exploring the endless potential of in-the-hoop embroidery!
We have broken down all of the projects in the 501 curriculum into different categories: Free Standing, Projects, Lifestyle Accessories, and Bonus Designs. Let’s look at these exciting techniques a little closer. Under the “Free Standing” category you’ll see how to create tags by adding elastic bands so that they can be used in a myriad of ways. Use them to label your stabilizer rolls or your favorite bins of craft goods. Want to create personalized canister labels for the kitchen? Well, now you can! We’ll show you how to merge text into different shapes so that you can create a truly unique and usable tag, wherever you choose to use it. You will also discover how to create beautiful sun catchers by using vinyl and organza as appliqué. Want to create an elegant bowl made entirely out of lace? We’ll show you how! Under the “Project” category, you will see how we create useful items like pin cushions, needle cases, book corners, and more. You’ll not only learn how we create our popular dangler designs, but we are going to stitch one out as well – a first for any Anita Goodesign class! Need some projects to help get you organized? Designs under our “Lifestyle Accessories” will do just that. From a checkbook cover, a keychain bag, to a luggage tag, you will be able to make great gifts or accessories to get you on your way! See how quickly & easily our zippered bags stitch out in fun new shapes, and you guessed it, all in the hoop! For the first time ever in an Anita’s University class, there are extra bonus designs! Under the “Bonus” tab you will find even more designs that support the techniques in your binder. These are some past releases that we think you’ll love stitching in addition to the exclusive University designs you are receiving!
