Seminar 2011 April 15 - 17
The NER Board is pleased to present our "Pining to Stitch" Seminar.
We hope you will all find a class that interests you since Seminar is the Region's most significant method of providing educational opportunities to our members.Committees are working hard on various aspects of Seminar 2011.
Twenty-three teachers have submitted class proposals. The Faculty Chairs have arranged a meeting of members of the Seminar Committee for November 10 to review the proposals and determine which classes will be offered. Proposals will be returned and contracts mailed out by December 1, 2009.
To entice our members, a four-part project is being designed and charted by Denise Pratt. Directions for one part of the project will be given in the three NER Newsletters preceding Seminar 2011. Part four will be a SURPRISE and given only to those members attending the Seminar.
Our name tags have been designed and are already partially stitched thanks to Suzanne Bruno and her competent band of stitchers.

Region Day September 25 - 26, 2010
The New England Region EGA is planning a fabulous educational event for our next Region Day. We're still making the final arrangements, so details are incomplete, but we know you'll want to make plans to attend.As in the past we'll offer two classes and studio time.
Jane Nicholas will be teaching a two-day stumpwork class. NER was fortunate to be able to schedule a class with Jane as part of her U.S. teaching tour following the EGA Seminar in San Francisco.
There will also be a class in a counted-thread technique. We're still working with teachers, so we can't be more specific. We do know this will be a one day class on Saturday on either linen or canvas.
One day of Studio Time will also be available on Saturday.
The venue will be a hotel in the Framingham/Marlboro/Worcester corridor of Massachusetts. Registration will include lunch.
Complete information will be available in March - class descriptins, pictures, location, cost, the works! Mark the dates on your calendar now. If you have any questions, please contact Pat Timpanaro, Region Education Chairman at Pat or 781-665-4118.
