Programs For 2010 January
Designed by With My Needle, these sweet pin cubes in either a Strawberry or Quaker design are sure to be favorite keepsakes. They are stitched over one on 28ct. linen or over 2, making the cube larger. The pattern suggests using DMS or Gentle Art floss, though fibers are stitcher's choice. Class continues in April.
Taught by Paula.

This multipart class will create a Victorian-style sampler designed by Thea Dueck. It features an English cottage nestled under tall fir trees, fruit trees and a barnyard full of animals. In the center is an herb garden consisting a several specialty stitches and a bit of hardanger. Putty colored Cashel linen wil be used with stitcher's choice of recommended fibers or a DMC-based conversion. Class will continue in March, October & November.
