The Historical Society of Princeton (HSP) will host a public embroidery event, lecture, and exhibition at Updike Farmstead on Wednesday, October 8, 2025. From 1:00 to 3:00 pm, the public is invited to observe stitchers work on the New Jersey panel of America’s Tapestry. In addition, free needlework tutorials will be available from members of the Princeton and Colonial West Jersey Chapters of the Embroiderers’ Guild of America (EGA). Visitors are welcome to try out various embroidery stitches, and there will be an opportunity to sign up to work on the actual New Jersey panel. 18th century examples of New Jersey needlework, on loan from a private collection, will be on display in HSP’s museum. At 2:00 pm, project director Stefan Romero will give a lecture about his vision for America’s Tapestry.
Immediately following the main program, at 3:00 pm, members of the Princeton EGA will offer a fun workshop entitled “From Needle to Gourd: Turn Your Needlepoint into a Pumpkin.” Registrants should bring a piece of needlepoint that is damaged or no longer usable, and materials will be available to transform it into decorative pumpkins for the fall. The activity is limited to 15 participants, and pre-registration is required. To register and to arrange for $40 payment, please contact Carol Prevost at carolwprevost@gmail.com. Participation in the “Stitch-In,” lecture, and exhibition is free; registration is requested by visiting https://princetonhistory.org/events/americas-tapestry-stitch-in-event/
