Let's hang out and stitch! Don't know how? I'll teach you.
Let's stitch together!
I'll be in Minneapolis for a minute and I want to stitch with you!
Join me on July 30th from 6-8 pm at KNIT and BOLT!
Bring your stitching materials and your friends. We will talk craftivism, art, community building, work on our projects, and get to know each other.
If you have never stitched before you should definitely come and I'll teach you how! You can buy materials at Knit and Bolt or bring them with you.
Shopping List:
This is a BYOSupplies sort of party so you should bring whatever you usually use to create/craft.
For folks who are new to fiber art, here is what I suggest you bring:
A sketchbook, pencil, and sharpie
A 6 inch embroidery hoop
A 13 inch by 13 inch piece of white or light colored fabric (cotton, calico cotton, tight weave linen are all good choices)
A WATER soluble marking pen (not air soluble...it will disappear too fast)
Size 22 tapestry needles
A selection of embroidery floss
Scissors
On the “Tutorials” section of the website you can find images and links to the products which might help when you hit the craft store. Also on the tutorials page, are 3 short videos that I made to help new stitchers learn to stitch. You might want to watch them before we get together. It will shorten your learning curve.
