Pocono Mountain Chapter

of the Embroiderers' Guild of America


About Us

The Pocono Mountain Chapter was founded in 1980 and has continued in the Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania area ever since. The Chapter is affiliated with the Metropolitan Region and the National Embroiderers' Guild of America. Our goal is the promotion of all types of embroidery and the enhancement and preservation of skill and technique in the field. We meet at Stroudsburg High School in the cafeteria every second Monday of the month at 7:00 pm except July and August. In July and August we meet at Hughes Memorial Library in Stroudsburg. We welcome visitors and new members.
