Teacher: Laurie Capponi


A close-up photograph of a cream-colored piece of Aida cloth mounted on a wooden table, featuring neatly stitched cross-stitch embroidery. At the center, the text reads "HOLIDAY GIFT TAG PROGRAM ANNOUNCEMENT" in decorative red and green cross-stitch lettering. The text is surrounded by small embroidered holiday icons including a Christmas tree, ornaments, a reindeer, gingerbread cookies, holly leaves, and snowflakes. A decorative geometric cross-stitch border frames the design. Resting on the fabric are a needle threaded with green and red embroidery floss and a white plastic floss bobbin wound with multi-colored holiday threads. Surrounding the fabric on the wooden surface are skeins of embroidery floss, a glass jar filled with needles, and vintage-style embroidery scissors.

For our November program, we will be offering several patterns for small, quickly finished cross-stitch holiday gift tags.


Laurie has provided a Pinterest link for inspirations and patterns:


This will be a stash buster, so bring fabric, fibers, needles, and scissors. We will offer suggestions on how to finish these tags. They are small and simple, so you may be able to finish a couple during the class.
