**Workshop is now filled! Thank you to everyone who registered for this class. **

Registration is now open for Playing With Shapes, taught by Nicole Gammie! Nicole will be taking us through the steps of creating and stitching unique canvaswork pattern using simple design tools and materials most of us have in our stash or which can be easily purchased. This workshop is suitable for advance beginners with some basic canvaswork knowledge to advanced stitchers. Information for the workshop is posted in the Files section of VT Fun Stuff under 02026 Upcoming Workshops. Nicole has designed the class so that it can also be stitched on linen or as surface work embroidery.

Registration will open May 4th and close on May 25th. With room for 30 students, this would be a great chance to learn more about the principles behind canvaswork design and to create a unique pattern. We hope to see you there and to see all the lovely designs members create.

** You must be a current member of EAC and Virtual Threads in order to enroll in the workshop**

Friendly reminder that you are not “just doing needlepoint.”

You are choosing color. Selecting texture.

Creating dimension. Making intentional artistic decisions with every single stitch.

You are making art. With your hands. From scratch.

Act accordingly. 😄🧵
