Several members had brought in lovely examples of work to inspire those who had not tried this technique before.
Shadow work is worked on sheer fabric where the stitches show through the fabric to give a delicate, muted effect.
This technique is often used on lingerie and children's clothes - particularly christening robes.
Colour can also be introduced for a bolder effect
Members tried out various designs and those with more experience were given a "mystery item" (in this case - metallic thread) to incorporate into the samples.
