Needlepoint Guild

Led by Nancy Sharp and Anne Barnett, our Needlepoint Guild is working to provide beautiful handcrafted needlepoint cushions for our new Communion rail. For the designs, they worked with Nancy Lukowski of Fancywork Finishing in Easton, Maryland. Nancy has worked for years as Head of the Needlework Guild at the National Cathedral in Washington, DC. She is an accomplished ecclesiastical needlepoint designer and finisher, and has been in her field since 1970. We are very excited about her work and the design she has created for us.

You can view a gallery of photos of the design and work progress in the photo galleries page.
