About this Event
Learn the basics of chicken scratch embroidery or cross stitching while giving new life to fabric and materials that might otherwise go to waste. It’s a fun, low-pressure way to slow down, make something by hand, and get creative with patterns, colors, and textures. No experience necessary, just bring your curiosity and your creative spirit!
This class is a part of our Creative Reuse series. Through Creative Reuse, we put materials that would have been thrown away to good use. Our goal is to save and use yarn and other craft supplies that would otherwise be thrown away and use them. Please bring any yarn, notions, t-shirts, or plastic storage boxes you would like to donate to the class. Donating craft supplies or cash helps us offer this class series for free.
