    I am still teaching beginning knitting and crochet at the college and the recreation center, though there are more wanting to learn to crochet lately. Guess it’s the trends changing again. I proposed a class on making toys to the community college (Casper College) and this is the 3rd time offering it and the first time it has filled up. So I’m…[Read more]

    Hi all,

    Our chapter is hosting Diane Herrmann’s Walking the Water’s Edge in Chicago in May, and we are allowing ghost stitchers. If you are interested in ghosting this class or attending in person, go to http://www.windycityega.org/upcoming-events/

      Hi Heather, thank you for that invite. Wondering what is included in the fee—any materials?

    • Profile picture of HEATHER SHULICK
      HEATHER SHULICK replied 6 years ago

      Hi Kay,

      The in-class fee of $85 includes the teacher’s fee and kit. If you decide to ghost the class, the $100 fee includes the teacher’s fee, kit and a shipping/handling fee for the kit. Please let me know if you have any other questions!

      Kay Richardson replied 5 years, 11 months ago

      I’m kind of a new EGA member….can you explain how the ghosting works? Is it just a do-it-on-your-own project?

    • Profile picture of Wendy Lynn
      Wendy Lynn replied 5 years, 10 months ago

      Kay- I’m not sure you ever got an answer to your question. In my experience, ghosting involves signing up for a class that you cannot attend in person. The teacher or the person organizing the class will mail the kit to you. So, yes, you work on the project on your own. And we’re so glad that you joined EGA. Welcome to our world!

      Hi, Helene. I got a letter saying I had gotten the class I requested during preregistration, and that we will get information by 1 February on how to complete registration. That must be done by 1 March, so we’ll have a month to pay the rest of registration and the class fee(s).
