Create the final 2 pages of the book
These classes are run by the Guild in a relaxed and supportive environment. Everyone over 18 is welcome – beginners or experienced embroiderers alike. You don’t need to be a Guild member. The projects are easy and fun with Guild members there to help you and provide a way of developing your enjoyment of embroidery. Projects are designed for beginners and include the basic stitches used in surface embroidery.
New members are offered one free Start Stitching class during their first year of membership. They may choose which Start Stitching class to use as their free class, not necessarily the next one. This allows the option of attending whenever the project appeals. New members may also attend as many Start Stitching classes as they wish during that first year, at the usual cost of $30.
The class cost includes a kit with threads, needle, notes and tuition.
