Stitchers, are you ready to convene in person this fall, 2021? So are we! Our September meeting will be in person on the 20th at Bethany Lutheran Church. The meeting will also be zoomed for all of our fans & members from around the country. There is a festive party being planned by our Lea H., so refreshments and fun are on the menu. RSVP required.
There will be a M-A-S-S-I-V-E Show & Tell event, with as many tables as we need for display! So bring all those finished projects from pandemic year so we can enjoy them! It’s party time!
Then, for our OCTOBER 18th meeting, our very own Maura L. will be teaching this adorbs little pumpkin, a fast & easy stitch, with all supplies provided by the Colorado Columbine Chapter.

But that doesn’t mean we are not stitching! Members of the Colorado Columbine Chapter of the American Needlepoint Guild are at home, stitching safely until our meetings can resume.
Needlepointers are uniquely equipped to weather lockdowns & stay-safely-at-home orders. We are so very fortunate, and most of us have a supply of goodies that we never seem to have time to start. Well, enjoy the unexpected stitching time, and our board will be notifying us whenever our meeting place decides it is safe to assemble.
Meanwhile, these treats have been tee’d up since March, and will keep until we resume classes.
Another popular Kathy Rees design will be offered in 2020.

A panel of experts will be at our January 20, 2020 meeting to assist you with tackling that problematic canvas that never seems to move forward!
Go ahead and bring out those ‘problem kids’ and let us take a fresh look at them. Sometimes a striking color or new stitch can really bring a piece alive! Or, if you’re having trouble just putting the first stitch in, let our experts guide you.
They will have stitched examples and plenty of the new, hot stitch books to consult. Let new eyes take a new view of your weary canvas and get it finished!
