What are you doing on the last weekend of March? Make a date with the San Diego and Palomar Mountian Stitchers of the American Needlepoint Guild and Margaret Bendig, stitching “Oh Long May it Wave”

This is such a great deal, especially if you are a member of one of these chapters. Where are you going to find a 2 day workshop at this price?

Oh Long May It Wave is a counted canvas design. The red stripes in the flag are stitched with over- dyed red floss, 4 solid red colors and two sparkly red threads. White floss is used for the white stripes. The star field is worked with an overdyed blue thread and Petite Sparkle Rays. The stripes in the flag are composed of a variety of square stitches. The stitcher has the choice of over 125 stitches from which to select. The “sky” background is stitched with an over-dyed light blue floss with a choice of background stitches. Or the stitcher can leave the background unstitched and se- lect a sparkle canvas instead. The complete design is surrounded by a red and white striped bunt- ing with a patriotic blue interior border. The design is fun to stitch and the variety of stitches makes it interesting to stitch and to view. The solid white squares reflect the light and the combination of reds and  metallic threads make the flag wave and sparkle. The design size is 11.5 by 7.5 inches on 18 count canvas. Ghost stitchers are permitted.
