9:30 AM–5:30 PM
Deer Stone Lodge
Monroe, North Carolina
$230
Spend the day immersed in finishing, creativity, and community at beautiful Deer Stone Lodge.
This full-day workshop combines Round Ornament Finishing in the morning with Irregular Ornament Finishing in the afternoon, giving you the opportunity to learn two of my most popular finishing techniques in a single day.
Between sessions, enjoy a relaxed lunch break while browsing a carefully curated pop-up of kitted canvases from some of my favorite local needlepoint shops. After the afternoon workshop, you're invited to stay for Open Stitch & Community Time, giving everyone a chance to relax, stitch, ask questions, and enjoy time together before heading home.
Whether you're looking to build confidence in your finishing skills or simply spend the day with fellow stitchers, this workshop is designed to be more than just a class—it's a day dedicated to creativity, learning, and community.
Round Ornament Finishing
9:30 AM–12:00 PM
Learn the complete process of finishing a traditional round ornament, from preparation and construction to custom cording and final assembly.
12:00 PM–1:30 PM
Enjoy lunch on your own while shopping a curated selection of kitted canvases from some of my favorite local needlepoint shops.
Irregular Ornament Finishing
1:30 PM–4:00 PM
Learn techniques for finishing unique ornament shapes, including door hangers, specialty ornaments, and other non-round designs.
4:00 PM–5:30 PM
Wrap up the day with a relaxed stitching session exclusively for October 8 participants. Bring your current project, visit with fellow stitchers, and enjoy a little extra time together before heading home.
Please bring:
One completed stitched round canvas
One completed stitched irregular ornament (door hanger or specialty shape)
Backing fabric for each project
Cording materials in the colors of your choice
I recommend DMC #5 Pearl Cotton for making custom cording
Additional finishing materials used during class will be provided.
Space is intentionally limited to provide plenty of individual instruction and a relaxed workshop atmosphere.
