What am I talking about? Well I have been really enjoying designing and drawing these last 6 months and one project I really wanted to do was run a stitch-a-long. But my designs are not big and complicated. I deliberately design stuff that really won't take you long to stitch from start to finish because I like those sorts of projects.
OWL WREATH STITCH-A-LONG
So I am making my Stitch-a-Long a little different. The stitching component is only half of the SAL. The second half is a finishing tutorial. I'm going to give full instructions with a video on turning your piece into a little pillow that you can hang on your christmas tree or put in a decorative bowl. You're going to be able to finish all your ornaments from now on and they make awesome gifts for friends and family to hang on their trees.
Time:
This is going to be a 4 week SAL with week one being cross stitching and then by the end of week 4 you will be able to showcase your finished ornament.
Requirements:
Cross stitch fabric
Threads - 8 colours
Backing fabric
Stuffing
Sewing Machine and/or Needle and thread
Fabric Glue
Ribbon/thread for the trim
Design:
This is a mock up of the finished design as I haven't finished the stitching to show you what the pillow will look like.
It is 50x50 stitches so will end up at about 3.5 inches square.
So down to the important questions what do you get?
This SAL will include:
-Weekly videos of the steps involved and the instructions.
-Full pattern to stitch the above design
-Instructions and options to finish your design
-Exclusive pattern group for the above SAL where I can answer any questions and you can get help from me or others doing the SAL.
-Access to the videos and pattern for eternity (well maybe not depends on the internet not me!)
How much will it cost?
This is probably a large question as there is a lot involved. I am offering this SAL for the awesome price of $1 AUD. (I don't know what exactly that will translate to in your country with the taxes that get added) I figure this is my first ever SAL and outside the design and videos the majority of the cost of supplies will be on you so I want to make it as available for everyone as possible. I will also suggest cheaper options and alternatives as we go along if it is at all possible.So please come join me on this fun journey! I look forward to sharing this with you!
Get the pattern HERE and join us for a fun November!
Happy Stitching,
