Children’s Cross Stitch

RESCHEDULED TO FEBRUARY 24, 4-5:30 pm
In celebration of National Embroidery Month children in grades 3-5 are invited to this hands-on 2-part program where they can learn how to cross stitch. Cross stitch is a popular form of embroidery that uses X-shaped stitches to create designs. Members of the Embroiderers’ Guild of America will teach basic cross stitch on a small sampler which can then be framed, used as a greetings card insert, or as a coaster. The first is the main teaching session after which students will go away to continue working on their own. The second session follows up with a show-and-tell of the finished product, helping with students’ stitching problems, or advising on further study. Registration is required and there is a supply fee of $3. Participants may sign-up at the Children’s Library, payment upon registration. No online registration. Sponsored by the Embroiders’ Guild of America.
