The Holiday Countdown Has Begun!
Nancy has some great plans for the Pointers!
April and May were 2 years long each, and then the summer crawled along at a snail's pace, but somehow September and October went twice as fast as normal and now it's already the middle of November!
You know what that means? It means the Holidays are HERE and we need to get ON it!
To help the Needlepointers with their Holiday projects, Nancy M. is offering a Holiday Needlepoint Workshop! You can buy a kit here (with a 10% class supply discount) or bring one from home. Nancy will help you with the stitching, dressing it up with fancy fibers, and everything else you need for some adorable Holiday ornaments/gifts!
Because of COVID-19, all the classes are limited to 2 students and masks are required. Private lessons are also available (call us at 210-979-8255 to schedule a private lesson).
You can sign up online or over the phone!
Be well, be safe, be kind!

The Tip JarTo make your sweater or other knitted/crocheted/woven garment look handmade (as opposed to homemade), match the garment ease to fabric stiffness. If you prefer an oversized or loose fit, the fabric (meaning your gauge or sett) has to also be loose, so that the fabric drapes. If you want a fitted garment, you need a firmer fabric made at a tighter gauge or sett to ensure that the garment doesn't cling unattractively.
Swatch and compare the drape of the handmade fabric to the clothes in your closet. Floppy fabrics are for LOOSE clothes, Stiff fabrics are for CLOSE-FIT clothes, and "just right" fabrics are for standard fit (not loose, not tight) clothes.
All classes are currently on hold, due to the San Antonio & Bexar County joint Stay Home/Work Safe order.
