Meet Your Needlepoint Guide…
Hi there! I’m Ellen Johnson, a former first-grade teacher turned needlepoint teacher and author.
Wondering why you should trust me to be your Needlepoint Guide?
Well, here's a little bit of background info about me...
I've mentored hundreds of stitchers just like you.
I love sharing time-tested needlepoint success strategies and systems that I've developed during my 25 + years of teaching in my own shop and around the USA.
My mission is to help more stitchers overcome their challenges and frustrations so they can stitch with confidence.
I'm the founder of The Stitcher's Club – a premium membership community that empowers needle artists by providing them with resources, relationships and valuable training materials.
I've written articles and designed projects for a variety of needlework magazines and I'm the author of The Embroidered Home.
Now more than ever, we are all craving connection and a way to express our creativity. Needlepoint has been a way for me to achieve both of these, and I know it can do the same thing for you.
I'M READY TO CONQUER BEADING!
