Happy New Year 2021

 The meetings on 2 January decided on a common activity for the next six month. Members will create individual Stitch Samplers.  The sampler can take the form of a hanging, a roll, a book, tags or any format you can think of.  For the first month members are going to be working on stitches A. B, C, and D. The choice of stitch is left to the individual, and there were many stitches suggested, but members were encouraged to tackle stitches outside their comfort zone

There are many potential sources of stitch are abundant.  Many books have alphabetical lists and many websites have descriptions, diagrams and video samples.  

Here are some suggested sites:-

December 5 - Online with Sue

 An excellent online session with Sue this Saturday.  Sue talked through her experience and ideas for the work.  Many of the participants chose an artist as inspiration for shape, colour and design. Just as with the normal meetings many of the "zoomers" were focused on their own projects.

Here is some of the work:-

 Here are some examples of Sue's work based on the workshop title for Saturday.  Inspiration from Matisse (1-3) and  Kandinsky.  We can expect to have a  great time.
