  *** This meeting has been cancelled, and the program for this day and our elections will take place at the June meeting ***

Saturday, April 4th, 2020 (Annual Meeting)
                                  "Rozashi Day"

We will spend our meeting time looking through lots of patterns and information on Rozashi from materials donated by Ginny Currie.  Each of us will choose a pattern, set up the fabric, select the threads, kit them up and begin stitching during the rest of the meeting.  Hopefully we will have finished pieces to show at a fall meeting.

As this is our annual meeting, we will elect officers for the next two years.  The slate is as follows:
                          President:  Laurie Sulgur
                          Vice President (Program):  Lisa Green
                          Vice President (Membership):  Linda Berry
                          Secretary:  Kathryn Lord
                          Treasurer:  Linda Berry
                          NER Rep:  Kathryn Lord

Location:  Thistle Needleworks in Wethersfield, CT
Schedule for the day:
                10 AM to 10:30 AM         Board meeting

      This program will take place at a fall meeting, the date of which is to be determined.
              Circles: Theme and Variations - Pattern by Lois Kershner

This is a pattern which explores canvas embroidery stitches in a circle motif.  The monochromatic color flows around the circle as it makes a gradual shift in value from dark to light.  Stitched in a blue hue, the pattern mimics a large ocean wave cresting, then splashing into white foam.  The piece is designed to be mounted on the lid of a 7-inch circular box, but it could also be framed.  It is stitched on white 18 count canvas.
