Embroidered 3D Peacock Butterfly from scratch – with Nicole Lupton

In this course, you will learn all the skills and techniques to embroider a 3D peacock butterfly, based on my pattern provided in the course. I will start by showing you all the materials you need, and then how to transfer the pattern onto the fabric. Next, I will teach you fabric painting skills and my favourite way to embroider by machine. Then I will share with you how to bring your butterfly to life with some textured hand embroidery and then how to make your butterfly three-dimensional. We will finish by adding some fine detailing ready to display. By the end, you will be able to embroider your very own three-dimensional peacock butterfly.

No sewing skills are required. I will demonstrate and talk you through all the steps. All you need is a basic sewing machine with knowledge on how to use it, some fabric paints, embroidery threads, scissors, needle, wire, a hoop and a few other small items that are all listed in the course.
