About the event

"Did you get an embroidery kit as a gift? No idea how to start the thing, but you’d like to? Did you buy a cute embroidery kit and are a little trepidatious about starting it? Maybe your aunt taught you a little about embroidery when you were 10, but now you are 40 and the stitches didn’t just come back to you? Or maybe you have seen a cute embroidery kit at Past and Future Crafts that you would LOVE to buy, but you have no idea how to get started?

And then you see that all the 'Learn embroidery classes' require you to buy their kit and materials?

Never fear! Tree Heckler is here to help! Dig that thing out of the closet, the junk drawer, or wherever you stashed it. Bring it to this class!

This class is for learning freestyle, crewel work, or cross stitch embroidery ONLY.…"

Intro to Embroidery with Tree Heckler | Past + Future Craft

Past + Future Craft
At Westkapelle, history and landscape meet in powerful ways. On our third day there, we walked from Westkapelle towards Domburg and passed several war monuments — solemn reminders of the tragedy that struck this coastline in WWII. In 1944, Allied forces bombed the dikes to flood the area, a painful but tactical move to hinder German occupation. The cost was immense: many lives were lost, homes destroyed, and communities displaced. Liberation came, but at a heavy price.

Beyond the monuments stands the small but striking Vuurtoren Noorderhoofd (North Head Lighthouse). Painted in vibrant red, it watches over the sea — a beacon of safety, but also a symbol. To me, it represents both remembrance and resilience. We cannot erase the scars of the past, nor should we. They remind us of what unchecked hate, racism, and aggression can bring.

Yet the lighthouse also points forward. Just as its light guides ships to safer waters, so too can memory guide us toward a future built on peace, justice, and vigilance. “Never again” was the promise after WWII — a call not only to remember but to act, wherever injustice rises.

History is not behind us; it’s beside us, shaping every step. Standing there, with the sea winds and the red tower against the horizon, I felt that message deeply: look ahead, but never forget.

We don’t know what the future will hold. Good or bad, or somewhere in between.

We can only take one step at a time, often without knowing what comes next or where the possibilities will lead.

We have one chance at this life. There is no redo. Do we allow ourselves to be defined by the past, or do we step into the unknown future?
