Needlepoint

(1965 September 10)

I am beginning to wonder whether enough will sign up for my [crafts] class to make it go. Must be 8-12. Yes, Skip - it will not be too hard once started. Every time I will give a short talk on some form and show examples. But the big problem is in getting the class started. Imagine 12 women starting on 12 different things and only 10 lessons, and no art store in town to buy supplies. Take needlepoint alone. The Gros Point is done in at least 3 stitches, the Continental, Plain Half Cross, and Diagonal. The Petit Point in Continental and Diagonal only. Also other stitches used according to article made. I told Mable [Kanable] to tell each one who called her to register to call me so I could tell the lady what to bring to class to work with. More I cannot do.
