The Retreat Experience

Sign up for this class and immerse yourself in a luxury needlework retreat in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains...

Students purchase any canvas from Stitching Fox at least 5 months prior to the class. Stitching Fox sends the canvases to Paula Rae so that she has ample time to study, interpret, design, select stitches and threads, and write the guide that will help bring the canvas to life. On the first day of class each student receives a customized stitch and thread guide for the canvas to accompany individualized instruction during class time.

The level of this class is Intermediate. Stitchers should have some experience with needlepoint prior to taking the class.
