Super Bowl of Stitches
Saturday, February 8, 2025 9am – 3pm
Reversible Thistle Heart
Inspired by a 17th c. treatise by Randle Holme. Designed by Melinda Sherbring, the Double Plaited Braid is paired with Pattern Darning which forms a reversible pattern but a different one front and back. The design is most reasonably finished as an ornament.
