Recap of my visit with the North Suburban Needle Arts Guild

The fine ladies of the North Suburban Needle Arts Guild invited me to speak and teach at their guild in early February.  They wanted to learn about eTextiles, and I was so happy to oblige!

The lecture, “Intro to eTextiles” was a big hit!  Check out the packed room of members!

The two day class started with 6 inches of snow in the Chicago area overnight, and I woke up thinking that maybe they would cancel the class.  When I got to the parking lot, it was plowed and waiting for students!  Nineteen of the 21 students showed up!  That’s AMAZING!  These were dedicated needleworkers, and they wanted to learn, which is what I hoped I gave them!

We made eTextile books on the first day, and light up voodoo/squeeze dolls the second.  We had such a good time.  Look at the amazing work they made!

That was some really fantastic work by my students and I am proud to share it with you.  As always, if you want me to teach or lecture to your guild, I’d be excited to book a date.
