October Member Meetings

September member meetings feature a Cyanotype Printing demonstration by Kat Polewski . She will show how to use the sun as a photo-developing technique, using blue backgrounds on fabric revealing the shapes that are placed on top of the fabric, such as flowers, leaves, and rocks to name a few.

Chapter member, and award winning stitcher, Natalia Frank, teaches a hands-on Pearl Brooch for registered members at our morning meeting. She will follow-up with a presentation on the fascinating history of Russian Pearl Embroidery at our evening session.
Natialia teaches nationally and specializes in miniature petit point worked on silk gauze.
