I love having people to come and stitch with me at my studio.
I love making up the kits and preparing the linen.
Love seeing confidence build and friendships being made.
I love sharing inspiration and feeling inspired too by the women who join me.
I love planning lunch, baking cakes and arranging my shelves so that my supplies look artistic and inspiring.
Love sharing new finds and favourite makers.
I held my very first workshop on Saturday with another yesterday. Despite me being overly optimistic about the number of people I could comfortably seat and cater for I think it all went really well and I so enjoyed making it a happy day. I can't wait for the next one. Come and join me - workshop dates are always published here and I'll be releasing new dates and new patterns soon.
If you can't join me for a workshop then on a few days a month I'll be holding social stitch groups. These will mostly be Saturdays but I'll open on other days for those who aren't free on a weekend. Just bring your latest project and something for your lunch and come to work with a group of like-minded people for the day. And if you're passing and the sign says I'm open then knock on the door and have a cuppa with me. I'd love to see you.
My gorgeous stitched letter from my friend Penny at The Embroidery Bird. These are available to commission as wedding/new home gifts or any other special occasion. Plump with fragrant lavender and stitched onto antique linen. Heart eyes!
Gifts and cards from my lovely stitching friends. I am so lucky to meet these people. Kindness beyond words.
Have a great week,
love
