Zoom Class with Wendy Moore
and
Saturday, June 11th,
2022
"A Livelier Bargello Iris"
This class will be offered via Zoom on consecutive Saturdays for 3 hours on each day.
Because we are zooming for shorter time periods, these three hours will be mostly instruction
with limited stitching. The class is considered intermediate in level and is stitched
on 18-count light blue vintage mono canvas. The design size is 10 1/2” x 15 1/2”.
The kit cost is $95 and includes the 16” x 20” line drawn canvas, threads to include
straw silks, Waterlilies, and solid and over-dyed cotton floss and pearl cotton, instruction
booklet, and needles.
Students will need to provide:
16” x 20” stretcher bars (one pair of each)
tacks or staples
laying tool
usual stitching supplies
light and magnification, if desired
Schedule for each day:
10am to 1pm - Class with Wendy (there may be
a short break during this period)
Join
the group during the ten minutes before the class.
*The deadline for signing up for this piece has passed, but Wendy may have an extra kit
if you’d like to join the class. Please contact Linda Berry at
lindaberry343@gmail.com as soon as
possible.

Christmas Tree Ornament
We will meet via Zoom to work on the Mini Tree Ornament described in the December
2021 issue of Needle Arts. This ornament was designed by Mary Waldsmith, and
the instructions begin on page 28. Please make sure you locate and retain this issue
for use at this meeting. A piece of green canvas will be mailed in September to
class participants, and the threads will be provided by you from your
stash.
A coupon is provided for this meeting.
Saturday, December 3rd,
2022
Snowman Ornament
This meeting will also meet via Zoom. The Winter Snowman ornament that we
will work on is in the Jan/Feb 2022 issue of Needlepoint Now. If you have this
issue, please save it for the directions. If you need a copy of the magazine, we
have them for your purchase. For this class, we will supply the canvas
in November and hope that you can find the threads needed in your supplies.
A coupon is provided for this meeting.

Zoom Class with Celeste Chalasani
and
Saturday, March 4th,
2023
"Tidal Treasures"
Tidal Treasures: Some of my fondest memories are of walking along the
beach picking up sea shells. As the waves gently roll in, I search the sandy beach
to see what treasure I might discover. Each shell is a mystery, a question of what
sea creature once inhabited it. In this class, you will create your own tidal
treasures: a starfish needle minder, a sea urchin pin cushion and scallop needle book.
Skill Level: Advanced
Registration form will be in the September issue.
CALL FOR DISPLAY PIECES
CRVC has been invited to the Granby Public Library in November for our fourth display
there. This one is titled "We're Back! Recent Pieces from the Embroiderers' Guild."
The focus is on any pieces you've finished since March 2020. They can be any
technique, any style, big (not TOO big), small, intricate, simple. They can be
from our Zoom workshops, or from your old stash of kits and unfinished projects that
you finally pulled out and polished off, or original pieces. The only criterion
is that you finished them since the first pandemic lockdown.
We'll collect the pieces in October, and get them back home in December. Most
pieces will be displayed inside locked cases, so even the smallest ornaments will be
secure. For each piece, please provide the title, designer (if known), your name,
and any brief comments you want to make about it (i.e. "I started this at a Region Day
15 years ago!"). You may loan us up to three pieces (five if they're
small).
If you've never participated in a display with us before, please consider joining us
in this one! Contact Kathryn Lord at hglord@cox.net for information about having
your pieces picked up and returned.
NER’S Special Class in September
NER has been accepted by the International Teacher Tour to
host Hazel Blomkamp on September 24-25. She will be teaching “The First Sip” as seen
above. Information about registering for this class is expected in late May or June,
so please watch for notification at that time.
