Anyone in MN?

Hello everyone! So glad to see a group of stitchers with a few recent posts . I started a google group call SE Minnesota Stitchers but have no idea how to find people who would be interested. This is the only active stitching group I can even find...hand stitching seems to be either a dying art or an art practiced in isolation. If any of you have ideas about how to meet oth er stitchers in my area, please let me know.

Hello Sharon...I'm glad to know there's at least one other minnesotan who stitches! Have you been able to find any stitching guilds in MN? I believe there's a few in the Dakota's which might be closer to you.

Hi Janie--

There are SEVERAL stitching groups in the the Twin Cities. Both the Embroid erer's Guild of America and the American Needlepoint Guild have chapters he re. There is also the Needlework Guild of Minnesota and Ladyslippers, which are independent groups not affiliated with national organizations. There i s a chapter of the International Lace Society. There is also an information group that has organized on Facebook. NONE of them have membership fees of $150. Not sure what group you were looking at that has dues that high. Tru st me, there are PLENTY of stitchers in Minnesota.

Not sure what this post was about but I am in Moorhead, MN. I am right on the ND/MN border. I am not sure if there are any stitching groups around but I am thinking of checking into it. Sharon in MN
