RSN Certificate in Technical Hand Embroidery: My Journey and Learnings


The RSN Certificate in Technical Hand Embroidery is a structured journey that combines skill-building, creativity, and personal growth. Over nearly six years, I completed modules from Jacobean Crewelwork to Silk Shading, each challenging me in new ways. This hub gathers all my posts about the Certificate, from my first stitches to the graduation ceremony at Hampton Court.

Each module pushed me to improve technically and creatively, and seeing the final works together was incredibly rewarding. Explore the detailed posts below to follow my full RSN Certificate journey, with insights, tips, and inspiration for your own embroidery practice.
