The Ozark Foothills SAGA chapter will meet at 6:00 at the Ozark Natural Foods meeting room on Monday, October 8. The program will be led by Joan Busby on Temari Balls
Temari are beautiful little thread balls. They don't have much more use than any other ball. They bounce a little. They're pretty.
We like to make them to keep our hands busy on road trips or while watching movies. They're low-key and relaxing. They're amazing demonstrations of non-Euclidean geometry.
Joan will be bringing kits for participants to purchase.

Judith Adams Workshop
March 23-24, 2018
We welcome Judith Adams of Australia to our next Stitchin in the Foothills Workshop. The workshop will be held March 23-24, 2018 at the JBU building in Rogers, AR. Judith is a former high school math teacher who lives in Sydney, Australia. Smocking since 1984, she calls it her "portable passion." She loves smocking on embroidered English netting, and using beads wherever possible. She has had articles published in Australian Smocking and Embroidery, Embroidery and Cross Stitch, Sew Beautiful, Creative Needle, and wrote the soft-cover book Step by Step Smocking. Her business, Status Thimble, supplies embroidered English nettings, French laces, Swiss embroideries and needlework notions.
Judith will teach her Pretty Pink Possum dress over this two-day class. She explains that Australian Possums are adorable fruit eating little animals that every Aussie loves. So a dress for a child in white Swiss satin batiste, French lace and smocked in her favorite color, most probably pink, should naturally be called “Pretty Pink Possum”.
Students will work with the laces learning to construct the lace front yoke and will learn numerous heirloom techniques. Handworked Feather Stitch to complement the smocking is worked above the lace band at the hem. Suitable for can experienced beginning smocker, and all levels for heirloom sewing. Heirloom novices welcomed!
Contact Diana McGruder at 479-466-1893 for further information.
