A Year in Stitches is a yearlong, monthly class series where you will learn 4 new, exciting, decorative stitches that correspond with a designated monthly theme or effect. I incorporate into each class a variety of exquisite, specialty threads, ribbons, beads, techniques and more each month. As you work through this class, you will create your own reference binder complete with 48 stitched samples, 48 graphs and any detailed, personal notes. Every year is comprised of new stitches with little to no duplication. Great joy is found in this unique class experience through the development of wonderful relationships with other students in the class who will be together throughout the year. I can’t tell you how many times I have had students say they look forward to this class / day the mos... it is the highlight of their month! I hope you will reach out to one of the 6 collaborating shops to join us.
