Experimental Hand Stitching at VCQ

Stitch Challenge by Cindy M.

Yesterday I taught my Experimental Hand Stitching workshop at the Virginia Consortium of Quilters. This quilt guild is made up of members from all over the state of Virginia. They have four meetings a year, rotating to different areas of the state. At each meeting, the members have the opportunity to choose from a selection of classes. These are very dedicated members! Most of my students drove 2-3 hours (or more!) to get to yesterday's meeting and workshops.

What a wonderful group I had. All of them eager to play with basic hand stitches and explore the many possible ways to stretch and change them. Each student made a sampler and started on a Challenge piece. Apologies for the so-so photos. They really did great work! Thanks to all of you for journeying so far to spend the day with me!
