Needlework

If your creative life so far has been limited to crafting excuses for why you're not using the right side of your brain, today's your chance to turn a constructive corner. Every Tuesday from 8:30 a.m. to who knows when, the textile mavens at The Studio (1121 West 47th Street, 816-531-4466) host Sit & Stitch, a gathering for people who love needles. Cindy Craig, a Studio manager who runs the group, says it's a great opportunity to work on a new or existing project and socialize at the same time. When asked whether the group is akin to so-called stitch-and-bitch circles, Craig says, "We try to be more stitch than bitch." Sit & Stitch is not a class, and all skill levels and ages are welcome. Coffee, muffins and scones are provided. You can bring your own knitting, crochet and/or needlepoint supplies or purchase something from The Studio's stash.
