It Takes A Village
Calico Gals is participating in the “It Takes A Village” wool stitchery event featuring nine designs from nine shops. Collect all nine blocks and create a village of your own!
Starting February 1, 2020, and ending March 31, 2020, each designer has kit for a piece of this village to purchase for just $16.99 including shipping in the US. Choose from nine different settings to complete your own personal village. Join the It Takes A Village Facebook Group to follow along!
Calico Gals’ block represents the Delphi Community Church located in the rural village of Delphi Falls, NY. Built in 1815, the church retains much of its original architecture thanks to the work of the dedicated community for over 200 years. The 20 large sashed windows allow light to fill the building and feature 40 individual panes in each window. Surrounded on three sides by a cemetery and stone wall, the church is nestled in picturesque farm fields of vibrant green in the summer and sparkling white throughout the winter months. Thanks to Debra Gabel for her needlework design of this historic building and to Melonie Unger for the inspiration and stitching of our block.
