Welcome to The National NeedleArts Association’s official blog.

We hope to keep you up to date on things of importance to our members and to other needlearts professionals.

First and foremost . . . REGISTRATION for TNNA’s Winter Show in Long Beach CA is OPEN!  If you’re a member, you can register online.  If you’re not a member, this is the perfect time to join . . . Although you can join when you get to the show, you can’t get the deal on the classes . . .such a deal!

If you’re a member of the Needlepoint Group, it’s time to sign up for your spot on the WorldofNeedlepoint.com web site.  We’re drawing more and more attention so you don’t want to miss out.

TNNA is also looking for members interested in hosting a student intern or apprentice this year.  Since we’ve changed the PiPN program to include two other options (internship or apprenticeships without the U of Akron coursework), we’re having many requests from interested students and recent grads.  This is a great way to re-energize your company, and get a little help at the same time.  Let us know if you’re interested by contacting me directly at bdirect @ columbus.rr.com (remove spaces to email.)
