Our Extensive Needlework Library
Marin Golden Threads has an extensive library available for lending to Marin Golden Thread members.
Click here to browse the catalog to see what is available.
Our library has been the recipient of amazing collections of needlework books from the estates of Gisela Ritchie and Diane Clements as well as the San Francisco Chapter of EGA. We appreciate the wonderful legacy they have left for us to share. We owe a large thank you to Lori and Aric for organizing and maintaining our library. All members are encouraged to check out books from our Library.
To check out a book or have the librarian bring one to a meeting, please contact Lori.
Thank you for your support.
