Hello everyone! So glad to see a group of stitchers with a few recent posts. I started a google group call SE Minnesota Stitchers but have no idea how to find people who would be interested. This is the only active stitching group I can even find...hand stitching seems to be either a dying art or an art practiced in isolation. If any of you have ideas about how to meet other stitchers in my area, please let me know.

I have no idea, do you not have any local stitching Guilds? This was
always a group which was mostly all over NA and to some degree
international.

There are no active stitching guilds in MN. There is a more professional guild in Minneapolis but their membership fees are over $150 and I'm unable to travel that far. I'm so sad about not finding people to enjoy this art with.

Those are steep fees! I'm not sure of any other way to find
stitchers, maybe someone else will have an idea. I don't think I am
imagining this but I thought there was someone here who used to be in
Minnesota.
