Caterpillar Club Box 15 - Season's Greetings

July 17, 2023

Welcome to Box 15 of the Caterpillar Club - 'Season's Greetings'

Are you a craft enthusiast looking for new, exciting projects to work on? Become a member of the Caterpillar Club today with our latest Christmas themed box!

WHAT IS THE CATERPILLAR CLUB?

Every 2 months a fun, a themed cross stitch subscription box will be delivered directly to your door. This lovely little treat contains 3 (sometimes 4) high-quality curated goodies and a brand new, exclusive kit created by a guest designer (someone famous in the craft world you've likely heard of).

You'll save time and money. The items in these magical boxes add up to much more than the price of your subscription, and you won’t have to spend hours in a craft store for supplies or searching for new designs to stitch. The subscription process is hassle-free and your box will be delivered straight to you every other month! 

If you need to take a break it’s super easy to pause, skip a box, or cancel your subscription at any time. 

ADD VARIETY TO YOUR CRAFTING

Every single box is different! Easily add excitement and variety to your craft pile. Test out numerous creative goodies and materials and trial new cross stitch techniques. This perfectly timed package will make you feel as though you’re receiving a surprise gift every other month. 

Every design included in these boxes is beginner-friendly. Cross stitch is a calming, meditative activity with heaps of mental health benefits and with the Caterpillar Club Box it's so easy to learn. You'll notice your skills develop with every stitch! 

If you're a more advanced stitcher, the designs included are the perfect way to take a relaxing break from your bigger pieces. 

So much love and care goes into each box we pack. If you've found yourself in a creative slump, these delightful patterns will provide inspiration and reignite your passion for creating.  

You have the option of a rolling bimonthly subscription, where you will receive a box every 2 months, or you can save 10% off the next 6 boxes and pay upfront to secure your next 12 months of enjoyable stitching sessions!

WHAT'S INCLUDED IN CROSS STITCH BOX 15?

The beautifully festive Season’s Greetings box contains all of the top-quality supplies needed to create a Christmas-themed cross stitch project, along with 3 useful, crafty items.

Use your top-quality Elbesee 6 inch hoop as you stitch, sip on yummy salted caramel hot chocolate from the Cosy Chocolate Company then finish off your project with Christmas red star Lewis & Irene backing fabric!

The complete cross stitch kit comes with easy-to-follow instructions, a professionally printed colour pattern on one page of A4 paper, a pre-sorted Carlos the caterpillar thread holder, DMC stranded cotton in 6 stunning shades, white Zweigart 14 count aida fabric (ideal for beginners) and a DMC branded size 24 needle. 

WHY IS THIS CROSS STITCH BOX SO SPECIAL?

This joyful design was created by gifted designer and cross stitcher, Emma Congdon
