Tauranga Embroiderers' Guild Sharing in the joys and trials of embroidery, teaching and learning new skills together A warm welcome awaits you!

The Day Guild meets every Tuesday at the Bowls Tauranga South building at Tutchen Street between 10am - 2.30pm, and Night Guild meets Wednesday in the Bethlehem area from 7pm - 9pm [Contact us for venue address and entrance details via [email protected]]. We cater for stitchers of all abilities, from beginner to advanced, and endeavour to encourage everyone to explore their stit

ching potential. Formal classes are run at the Guild on a regular basis and we also bring in outside tutors two or three times per year. Informal tutoring occurs all the time with various members offering their assistance. We have an extensive library which is available at no cost for Guild members. As a member of the Association of New Zealand Embroidery Guilds, we also have access to their learning resources. Whether you do cross stitch or any other form of needlework, or want to learn any particular needlework technique, whether it be traditional or modern, we have members who can help you learn in a friendly, social gathering.

This is Linda Inglis piece from an exhibition held at Katherine Mansfields House in Wellington. She was given 2 of Katherine Mansfields short stories to interpret, and this was the result from Miss Brill.
Linda highlighted sections from the story she wanted to use in her interpretation.

The old picture was in the frame that Linda used, she felt it needed to be kept with the piece to tell the whole story.

The stitching adds strength to the layers of cloth, and you can use any scrap, absorbent pieces of fabric
