Fibers & Firs

Calling all stitchers! We invite you to join Ellis Nature Centre’s new craft group Fibers & Firs, focused on the art of stitching. All fiber art mediums are welcome – embroidery, crochet, cross stitch, knitting, etc. We will meet weekly on Tuesdays, 6-7:30pm from May 20-August 26 to work on current projects, get tips from other stitchers, and build community. Please note that this is not an instructional workshop, but time for folks who love fiber arts to get together and work on their projects surrounded by the beauty of the Ellis Nature Centre site. If weather permits, we will work outside! Light refreshments (non-alcoholic) and baked goods will be provided for the first few sessions, with the hope that as we build a steady group everyone will be willing to contribute occasionally to the selection of baked goods.
