Extra points are garnered for hair in rollers, a mask of some kind etc. Fiddlesticks hosts several trunk shows each year that vary in style and design. They invite a national designer at least once a year for a weekend of classes, which includes a couple smaller projects along with a larger one so that there is something for everybody. Catherine Coleman will be their featured guest designer this September. Additionally, they arrange other community events throughout the year such as teaching lunch classes for office employees and other groups and they hold special children's classes during the summer.
Fiddlesticks collaborates with a group of talented artists to complete special order designs.
We adapt a lot of Hawaiian designs for church kneelers, seat covers etc. Our staff specializes in working up stitch guides for canvases using a variety of threads and stitches. Fiddlesticks offers a full range of classes in needlepoint, cross stitch, Hardanger, stumpwork and silk ribbon for all levels, which they also kit-up for clients who cannot attend in person. Lately they have added more beading classes - projects using the assortment of Mill Hill beads and other embellishments. Teachers strive to customize classes to whatever the students are interested in.
