Professional Luneville/Tambour Embroidery

What This Course Is About

Tambour embroidery often looks complex and intimidating.
In reality, it is a logical system of simple movements once you understand the correct order and hand coordination.

In this course, Tatiana Kozorovitsky introduces her unique teaching method, which breaks down professional Luneville embroidery into clear, manageable steps:

• mastering the American hook,

• learning basic hand movements,

• understanding thread tension,

• and transitioning confidently to the Luneville hook.

You will work on real embroidery projects, not abstract exercises — learning techniques you can immediately apply to wedding and evening dresses.
