Membership in the Carolinas Region EGA

The region offers two- or three-day seminars annually, touring teachers, region-wide Group Correspondence Courses and a quarterly newsletter. As a chapter member you are eligible to participate in all region functions.

Most chapters meet monthly with programs for all embroidery levels. Each chapter publishes a newsletter with information on upcoming programs and activities. Monthly meetings focus on stitching, with hands-on programs, slide presentations and lectures on a wide variety of stitching techniques. Many chapters have interest groups and several offer both day and evening meetings.

Membership in a chapter is open to anyone who is interested in or who simply appreciates needlework. Annual dues vary from chapter to chapter and include national and regional dues as well.

Chapter membership offers opportunities for fun, friendship, community outreach projects, exhibits to participate in or to admire, workshops, and personal and professional growth.
