Songbirds and Sewing: Cardinal

Sewn Cardinal
Next Date
-
Cardinals are some of the most recognizable songbirds in the area. From team mascots to state birds of Virginia, West Virginia, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, and North Carolina, cardinals are everywhere! 
 
To begin this relaxed introduction to hand sewing, we'll take a short walk to look for these red-feathered friends and draw inspiration from their songs. Then we'll head to the lodge to craft felt cardinals, where you'll embellish them with your own creative touch as you learn simple stitches.
