We are starting a page to keep our fellow needleworkers aware of in-person and online stitching events. We Need your help.  So, if you know of a Stitch-A-Long, (SAL) which is an online stitching event where everyone stitches the same pattern/design over a series of weeks or months, retreat or other community stitching news, please let us know so that we can share that information to other stitchers.

Here is the link to email us Thank you!

A New Secret Stitch-A-Long from Vervaco-LanArte

 

Stitching a cross stitch design without knowing what the end result will be? It’s fun! Our experience from previous Secret Stitch Along projects tells us that most stitchers love it.

The idea behind the Secret Stitch Along is that customers buy a kit without knowing which design they are going to make. Participants of the Secret Stitch Along 2023/2 will be the first to finish a beautiful LanArte counted cross stitch kit that will only be released in our collection in the spring of 2024.

The picture of the design and the instructions are not included in the kit. If you buy the kit, you need to register for the Secret Stitch Along 2023/2 on our Facebook page or on this page. Registrations open on the 18th of August 2023. Starting from September 15th, a piece of the pattern will be shared weekly in the Secret Stitch Along Facebook group and via email. The pattern will be released and completed over a period of 13 weeks. You can share your experiences, progress and any other thoughts with like-minded stitchers and the LanArte designers in the dedicated Facebook group.

Here is some information about the group:

So how does this group work?

Each month there is a theme and designer of the month.

Your goal is to pick a project that fits either the theme or is by the designer (or both).

I will create an event for each month (they are month long but FB only allows us to run the event for 2 weeks)

This is just for fun, you don't have to participate. you can post in the main group or in the event.

Every so often, there will be a set goals and prizes.

Any questions, just ask
