Our Redwood Stitchers chapter in Santa Rosa California is hosting their tenth annual open house on Wednesday, September 25, 2019. From 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. the chapter will exhibit a wide variety of members’ needlework, including cross stitch, needlepoint, huck embroidery, Bargello, surface embroidery, crewel, applique and quilting. Visitors can also view the club’s community outreach projects, which range from hand-stitched bookmarks to baby blankets and hats.
Admission is free, and complimentary refreshments will be served.
At 1 p.m. Kathy Johnson will teach a free class in beginning cross stitch. While stitching with floss on evenweave fabric, participants will learn how to begin and end threads, read diagrams and work three basic stitches as they create a bookmark with a spider design. Participants should bring scissors. All other supplies will be furnished. Seating is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.
