Stitch Spectacular

Stitch Spectacular

Dimensions Gallery
Savannah, GA
January 2009


Stitch Spectacular recognizes the exploration of new frontiers in creative hand embroidery. The once humble stitch is a star, and as such, needs to rock the house. Savannah, Georgia is one of many arenas fostering bands of stitching superstars. We want to show the rest of the U.S. how we stitch, and invite them to groove with us. Want to see yourself here? Send pictures of your hand embroidered work or pictures of your studio and a little bit about you to StitchSpectacular(at)yahoo.com. We can't wait to hear from you
