Workshops at NTGM: Stitched Photoscapes and Artist Trading Cards

The Needlework and Textile Guild of Michigan (NTGM, http://ntgm.org/) is a group of 50 or so amazingly and multi-talented fabric and needlework enthusiasts who welcomed me into their midst a week or so ago for a lecture and workshop series.  They have a great venue (at St. Stephen Episcopal Church, in Troy), with lots of space to spread out and work, and an impressive view of trees out the big windows!

I taught a couple of workshops to the group earlier in May.  My signature Stitched Photoscapes class resulted in wonderful variations of photos, fabrics, and designs, most of which I've gathered together in this composite photo (some were still work-in-progress at the time the photos were taken).

And here's a sample of the stitched cards the group produced and exchanged as part of the Artist Trading Card workshop.
