It was a cold day in mid-December and I had spent the entire weekend cleaning and tidying the house from top to bottom. A Christmas tree twinkled in the living room and both wood burners glowed invitingly. My friend Claire had baked chocolate orange brownies and I’d made soup for lunch. There was the remainder of snow on the ground from a frosty weekend and I welcomed 8 lovely ladies to my home for an embroidery workshop.
I am going to recreate that lovely day with a charity embroidery class on Black Friday - Friday 26th November.
Participants will receive the digital instructions, material choices and pattern (flipped for tracing too) beforehand so that we can stitch together and spend 90 cosy minutes together amidst the madness that is Black Friday!
Every year I create a pattern for charity and I have previously asked for donations to be made via the JustGiving site. This year, for the class, I am donating 100% of the cost to Shelter via Work for Good. I have pledged to raise £2000 so please help me to spread the word!
As with all of my classes, if you can’t join live it doesn’t matter, all orders include access to the live recording afterwards and stitch at your own convenience, watching and rewinding as many times as you like to really master the stitches. Sign up here!
This is my nod to Black Friday - I am suspicious of most Black Friday deals with bigger companies. We have a couple of new things to release (including a lovely new kit and some linen bundles) and I’ll be sharing details of those via the newsletter. Please make sure you are signed up to receive them; there is an opt-in form on every page of the website.
Wishing you a cosy, relaxing weekend.
Thank you for reading,
