Seminar Theme Award Gallery

The Seminar Theme Award (STA) was developed to encourage members to design and stitch a piece of needle art using the seminar theme as their inspiration. The complete policy and more information about the STA are available on the Awards and Grants for Members webpage.

To view a complete submission, simply click on the photo thumbnail. From there, you can easily navigate through the entire gallery by using the small arrows on either side of the image to move forwards or backwards.
