NATIONAL STITCH-IN-PUBLIC DAY
Take your stitching out to a café, library, or other public space to promote your craft and the Guild.
Pick up a few of our postcards at the meeting and spread the word about our Guild to the public.
Don't forget to take pictures and send them to photos@edmontonneedlecraftguild.org so we can share them in the next newsletter and on social media.
BACKGROUND:
Stitch-in-Public Day was created to celebrate the anniversary of the formation of EAC/ACB in September 1974. Members wanted a way to celebrate the anniversary, and what better way than to promote embroidery and encourage the public to become involved. And that is how “Stitch-in-Public Day” was born.
EAC/ACB’s national Stitch-in-Public Day is held on the last Saturday in September each year. All EAC/ACB chapters are encouraged to stitch in public on that day.
