What we explore
Counted techniques, every monthWe gather the 2nd Tuesday of each month, 10 am to 2 pm — in person in Bloomington or by video. Each meeting centers on a program or demonstration, then time to stitch and share, and programs alternate monthly between counted thread and needlepoint. Whether you love the precision of counted thread or the texture of canvas needlepoint, there's something here, and you're always welcome to bring your own project instead. Every skill level is welcome, whether you're just curious or have been stitching for years. Members at work
