Sunday, April 28, 2:00 to 4:00 pm
This workshop will address how to interpret a needlepoint canvas and bring it into the third dimension. There will be a discussion about the element of arts - line, shape, form, etc. and how they apply to a flat painted needlepoint canvas. Canvases that are on exhibit, along with others, will be reviewed and interpreted from beginning to end. Participants will have the opportunity to try the stitches on a piece of canvas with some of the new threads that are out on the market as well as other threads not generally used in needlepoint.
Fee: $45 - includes all materials, pre-registration required
