The Toronto Guild of Stitchery (TGS) is a group of 100+ people, both women and men, who share a common love of the art of needlework in all its forms.  Members come together to learn new techniques, share  their knowledge, and work on projects utilizing techniques such Cross-stitch, Hardanger, Crewel, Stumpwork, Mix-media, Quilting, etc. 

Our guild meets on the first Thursday of each month from September to June.  We have two meetings, one during the day and one in the evening.  Members may attend either or both meetings if they wish.  The programs at the two meetings are developed separately.  Details of where and when the meetings are held can be found on the Membership page. 

The Toronto Guild of Stitchery is a member of the Embroiders' Association of Canada Inc. (EAC) - our members enjoy the benefits of membership in the larger association and an annual subscription to Embroidery Canada, TGS members also receive 4 issues of our own newsletter, Stitching Together that keeps us informed of activities within our own guild.

In addition to our regular monthly meetings we also have some special gatherings.  Workshops are organized to teach interested members specific skills, techniques, or projects in a small group setting.  We help co-ordinate groups (who sign up) to work on the correspondence courses offered by the EAC. 

On a more social note, we host a Stitching Day Away (within the city) every year [a whole day to stitch with pleasant company and catered meals]. Both day and evening groups organize weekend get-away retreats, two in the fall and one in the spring, (traditionally a 2 - 2 1/2 hours drive from Toronto) providing members time away from normal interruptions to work on current projects with the company of other embroiderers' and interrupted only by the dinner bell].
