A few weeks ago I put together some photos for the EGA (Embroiderers’ Guild of America), that they will use on their website and marketing for an episode of their “Virtual Lecture” series.

Are you familiar with the EGA’s virtual lecture series? The Embroiderers’ Guild of America hosts a monthly virtual lecture for their members, focusing on embroidery history, techniques, culture, and textile traditions. You can read more about this series here.

They’ve got me down for a session in April of next year – and I think it’s going to be a super fun session! Instead of a lecture, it’s a question and answer session, with questions that members will have the opportunity to submit.

If you’re not a member of the EGA, by the way, perhaps you should be! The whole organization has undergone quite a lot of updating over recent years, and their resources and events are stellar. Because I don’t have a chapter close by, I’m a Member at Large – which is a very affordable $55/year membership allowing me to participate in events, make use of their resources, and receive their quarterly publication Needle Arts Magazine – a lovely magazine featuring projects, tutorials, and needlework news and resources.

While communicating with the coordinator for the lecture series, I put together a small collection of “favorite project” photos so that they could pick and choose whatever they wanted for marketing and so forth.
