Meeting Information: |
Meets the fourth Tuesday of each month at 7:00 P.M. at Christ the King Lutheran Church, 600 Walnut St., Cary, NC, room 105b except:
- there are no meetings in June and July
- the December meeting is usually a dinner with the Raleigh ANG, held at a restaurant. Cardinal Chapter and ANG rotate host responsibilities.
Each monthly business meeting is followed by an educational program. In the past, these programs have included stitching projects, slide
presentations, and guest lectures. The programs are a great opportunity to learn new things, and members are encouraged to share their talents and lead
programs. Past stitching projects have included needlepoint, beading, hardanger, crazy quilting, hemstitching, cross stitching, stumpwork, and many
other techniques.
The May meeting is our annual potluck dinner and usually starts at 6:30 pm. The September meeting includes our annual show of members’ needlework.
In addition to our monthly meetings, several stitch-ins are held each month at members’ homes. All members are welcome to attend stitch-ins to work
on any project. Scheduled stitch-ins are listed within each newsletter.
Cardinal Chapter members have varied interests and we enjoy learning new techniques. The Cardinal Chapter has participated in several EGA Correspondence Courses and
workshops on various embroidery techniques. Members have also attended many regional and national seminars and workshops.
