In this class you will learn the ins and outs of cross-stitch while making your very own adorable little piece of art. Jillian Gomez, a Los Angeles area native and life-long crafter, will teach you from her little duplex in Atwater Village.

If you've never picked up a needle before, you are in luck! Cross stitch is an easy and meditative craft that can be done by anyone. Seriously! If you can count to 10, you can cross stitch. Once you've mastered the basic stitch, the design possibilities are endless. You can create your own patterns or find more patterns than can be stitched in a lifetime for sale on etsy.

In this class, you will have the choice of 3 different patterns to choose from; all of which can fit into a 3 inch hoop. All will be available for download so once you master your first one, you will have access to 2 additional patterns.
