Our guild was begun in March of 1968. Today our membership of around 150 includes professional stitchers, beginners in various aspects of the needlearts, those for whom stitching is a hobby--all enjoying together and to the fullest the art of needlework. Original design is always encouraged. In April of 1999 our name was changed to North Suburban NeedleArts Guild to better describe our commitment to all forms of needlework.
