Thank you to all the kids (and adults!) who attended the ‘How To Cross Stitch’ workshop at Brighton Library today 
I had a great time, met some cool people, and sold some kits … and was pleasantly surprised that all the kids seemed to pick up the basic cross stitch, with some starting to create their own designs – very impressive!
The next one will be for the Adelaide Fringe Festival on March 3, and will be held at Glenelg Library.
Yep, that’s my aim! Sounds sinister, I know … but it’s better than being addicted to video games and television, right?
I have my first Kids Workshop on Monday. I haven’t really figured out what I’m going to say, or how I’m going to say it … but I’ve got a whole pile of wool, some (blunt) needles, plastic canvas cut into bookmark shapes and some graph paper. I think everything else will be fine!
Hopefully some of the parents will buy their kids a cross stitch kit while they’re there
My first ‘how to cross stitch’ workshop is scheduled for January 16!
Hopefully I don’t scare the kiddies … and create cross stitch OBSESSION, heh heh
The class is half full, so if you’re in Adelaide, give Brighton Library a call on 8229 9988.
They’re up! My ‘Kits For Kids’ series is now available at my Etsy Store:
And thank you to my hand model, Lily (age 4.5) – not yet old enough to stitch, but she does have fun creating ‘sculptures’ out of plastic canvas and wool
