Welcome to Helen M. Stevens' True Embroideries website - if you love textiles, fine art and the countryside, this is the place for you! For the past 25 years Helen's aim has been to share her knowledge with other enthusiasts - through her original artwork, live embroidery classes, lectures, workshops, books and, more recently, on-line tutorials. Now you can also buy everything you need to stitch the True Embroideries way through our on-line shop - fine pure silks, materials and needlework tools.
And if you are interested in patchwork, quilting, needlepoint, tapestry or cross stitch you are still in the right place: Helen's concepts are relevant to almost every discipline! For more beautiful fabrics, click on our sister website www.fritillary.co.uk
HELEN'S 2008 UPDATE
***NEW VIRTUAL GALLERY NOW AVAILABLE***
Click above to view Fritillary Gallery.
Here it is at last! Or at least the beginning …we promised you exciting news for 2008 and it's all happening!
You will find in this update a new books page, full details of all our classes for 2008 - our extensive Regency House Hotel schedule and more, including INTERNATIONAL WEEK and a series of new mini-masterclasses.
You can also now enjoy the long awaited new Virtual Gallery, of my own work - a slide show of exciting, fresh images you can sit back and enjoy, and exclusive links through to the Fritillary Website, where you can soon view and purchase the whole range of our palette of Pearsall's silks - a textural alternative to Pipers' whose range we are continuing to expand in our collection. And, at last, the fourth in our seasonal Masterclasses On Line! But you may to wait a week or so for those. In the meantime there's plenty for you to explore!
Also, at the foot of the Home page you will find a new click-on, fast link through to all the fresh additions to the website for each update. That should make it easy for you to access all the exciting stuff straight away!
And why, I hear you ask, are we feeling so "preppy"? The wonderful Pam has agreed to be my business partner in our new enterprise "Helen M. Stevens International Ltd." Our activities have expanded so much in the last couple of years that we had to take the leap of faith and go another step up the business ladder but don't worry, there will be no change in our commitment to bringing you a really personal, immediate service, whether you want to join in our live or Internet classes, purchase silks or other materials, visit the exhibitions or embrace the "Fritillary experience" and order fabrics, accessories, fine art cards and other lifestyle goodies! We still aim, wherever possible to achieve a 48 hour turnaround on all your queries and orders.
So enjoy browsing the new pages - and come back SOON for the next instalment!
Best wishes to you all
Helen
