Fiber Arts Demonstration
The following guild will present fiber art demonstrations over the course of the weekend:
Golden Thimble Needlecraft Guild
Golden Thimble Needlecraft Guild was organized in 1974 under the sponsorship of the Hampton Association of the Arts and Humanities. The guild was instrumental in the Hampton, Virginia bicentennial celebration as well as annual needlework shows from 1974-1998. The Guild continues to thrive as an independent guild. The Guild's mission remains constant: to serve as a forum for learning any technique done with a handheld needle and preserving the art of needlecraft. The Guild participates in local community projects. We welcome guests to our meetings at Liberty Live Church, 1021 Big Bethel Road, Hampton, VA 23666. Meetings consist of a business meeting followed by a needlework-related program or workshop to introduce techniques and projects. Meetings are at 10 am on the second Tuesday of the month and Sit and Stitch is on the fourth Tuesday at 10 am. Come by the booth and participate in our Sashiko Make and Take Mug Rug.
