Join us Sunday, March 30th from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. as we work on the second in the series of seasonal cross-stitched mini-tags cross. The wood tags are embellished with really cute wooden shapes, ribbon and felt to give them an extra special touch. There are a limited number of kits available, so they will be available on a first come, first served basis. Bring your normal stitching supplies and we'll be sending out an email with a list of called for thread colors and fabric. You will receive a wooden tag and choice of embellishment, but will need to supply your own threads and fabric. There is no charge for this project and everyone is welcome to come.
We'll be meeting at the Southeast Fiber Arts Alliance (SEFAA), located at 3420 W. Hospital Ave, Chamblee, GA. Even if you choose to not participate, just bring your current work in progress and anything you'd like to share for show & tell.
NOTE: Date has been changed to March 30th!!!
