Birmingham Public Library: Celebrate National Craft Month With Embroidery

From the Birmingham Public Library:

March 11, 2021

National Craft Month is the perfect time to learn a new craft or revisit an old one. Crafting is relaxing, mindful and creative, and getting started can be as simple as needle and thread. Embroidery is both easy to begin and endlessly adaptable. Happy stitching! We’d love to see what you’re working on – Sign up for our next Avondale Regional Library Club Create Craft & Chat via Zoom video on March 17th!
