    Here is the image of Sedona, without armature markings. It’s called Sedona because of the red landscape, the hiking trails, the cairns, and the vortices that the town is known for.

    The History Museum asked if I could create an unfinished piece of needlework to use in a short film for an upcoming exhibit. The piece would be used by an actress portraying an upper class woman of the late 1700’s. We chose a Flame Stitch pattern stitched in silk on a 30ct piece of linen. This picture is the actress in costume including her…[Read more]

      Try a tea party. There is a group in Washington state who put a tea party on every February and they have had to limit the attendees as so many want to come.

      I visited the Low Country Chapter Meeting last week and they had a little wrapped gift to raffle to members. Members in attendance donated $1/ticket and the winning number was pulled from the hat after the meeting. They collected over $30 at one meeting. Each month a member volunteers to bring a gift to raffle off. I thought it was a brilliant…[Read more]

    Two things on my mind this morning…. 1) Is your region taking advantage of the International Teacher Tour in 2019? My own region is doing so and I personally couldn’t be more excited. We would never have the resources to bring an international teacher to our chapter(s) without EGA providing this great opportunity. Check it out and spread the…[Read more]

      At present I don’t know of a chapter taking advantage of the international tour. We have in the past.
