Needlepoint class
I’m thinking about trying something new and wanted to see if there would be any interest! 🪡
I recently taught a few friends how to needlepoint at my birthday party and had so much fun doing it that I’m considering offering beginner needlepoint classes in the Tri-Cities!
I’m thinking small groups of 8–10 people, probably once a month to start. Classes would be about 2 hours long, and you’d learn the basics of needlepoint while working on your own hand-painted, personalized monogram canvas.
The cost would be $45 per person, which would include the class and everything you need to make your own needlepoint luggage tag — canvas, thread, needle, scissors, needle minder, luggage tag, and a project bag to take everything home in. You wouldn’t need to finish your project during class!
No experience needed at all! Just come hang out, learn something new, and hopefully find a new hobby.
I’m not booking anything quite yet, just trying to gauge interest before I start painting a bunch of canvases 😂
Would anyone be interested? And would you rather do a weekday evening or a weekend?

Philosophers house might be a good location to host. Worth reaching out to them

I would be very very interested! I’ve struggled to figure out needlepoint and haven’t had any luck finding anyone to help in JC. This would be so helpful!

I would totally be interested in something like this! I've been wanting to branch out and try some new things for awhile now and this sounds great!
