Creative Stitches Day 2 Workshop
Trina will be teaching several more advanced stitches from the Creative Stitching book. Students will bring their needles and original circles from the first class, adding to the stitches we learned on Day 1 (if they would prefer to bring something else to stitch on that’s completely fine as well).
