Our Program Chair continues to identify wonderful programs especially during the pandemic with continued restrictions on meetings and indoor gatherings.  For 2021, rather than adding to our collection of in-progress projects, the chapter programs will focus on techniques with discussions and presentations led by many of our well-known needlework instructors.

• January: Additions to Stitching with Toni Gerdes
  • This lecture discusses some of the newer threads along with many types of techniques that can be added to your needlework to enhance the design, including fabric appliqué, needle felting, stumpwork, copper lace, etc.  The lecture is approximately 45 minutes long with time at the end for Q&A.
