Punch needle is an ancient art form that has been revived with a modern twist. Artist Adeline Wang uses it to create unique pieces, from wall hangings to rugs. She sells her creations online via her online shop and has collaborated with brands including Michael’s and The UPS Store.
In this online course, Adeline teaches you how to create textile decorations of your own from start to finish. Learn to turn your design ideas into punch needle masterpieces that reflect your personality, stitch by stitch. Grab your favorite fibers and create custom accessories filled with color and texture.
Begin the course by getting to know punch needle artist and designer Adeline Wang. Hear how she went from studying financial management to selling punch needle decorations online, along with the influences that inspire her work.
Dive into the tools and materials needed for the course. Then learn how to thread your needle and punch the basic stitches. Adeline shows you how to use Adobe Fresco and Illustrator to create digital patterns for your punch needle projects, as well as how to choose a complimentary color palette.
Time to create your decoration! Start by transferring the design onto fabric. Then build a frame to stretch your fabric onto before punching your design using the techniques from earlier in the course. Use the adjustable punch needle to create texture and dimension in your work.
Remove your fabric from the frame and trim the border. Then use adhesive to attach your mirror. Add a felt backing to complete your piece professionally. To wrap up the course, Adeline explains how to apply different finishing touches to turn your piece into a wall hanging or rug.
