How to Join in with a Stitch-a-Long | Fun Fair Themed Enjoy the Ride!
December 05, 2017
Following on from the success of the current Happiness is Homemade SAL and the Christmas SAL Dash Away (now finished but you can still buy the complete pattern or kit here), I have decided to launch a new 2018 SAL!
We will be stitching the 8-part monthly SAL until August 2018. If you would like to buy Enjoy the Ride as a Christmas present, simply leave me a note when you checkout and I'll send a personalised card so the recipient has something to open on the big day!
Here are 6 great reasons why you should join in!...
1. Its a mystery! Sure, its nice to know exactly what your finished piece will look like but the mystery SAL makes it more fun! Patiently waiting for the next release date to find out which piece of the puzzle you'll be stitching keeps you on your toes!
2. Make new friends worldwide! Join over 3,000 stitchers on our Facebook page and 1,000 stitchers in the dedicated Facebook group here and meet other stitchers from Portugal to New York! Upload pictures of your progress to Facebook and Instagram (*using the hashtag #CCSSAL) and guess together what's coming up next!
3. Its quick and easy! Sometimes, a large piece can be a bit daunting; the complexity or size might put you off. But with the Stitch-a-Long, a larger pattern is split into more managable pieces.
4. Its relaxing! Cross stitch gives us that time to relax, wind down and concentrate on those little squares of perfection. Read all about the benefits of cross stitch here on the BLOG.
5. PDFs, hard copies or full kits! Whether you're totally new to cross stitch or if you've been obsessed for years, there's an option to suit you!
6. Who doesn't love funfairs? Each month there will be a new ride and/or funfair related element so relive your childhood and hop on board!
Travelling by plane can sometimes be a stressful and tiring experience, so why not take your cross stitch with you? As you can imagine, there are some very specific guidelines on what you can and can’t bring on a plane with you. Let’s get started with our recommendations for what you should pack, as well as some great top tips!
Just like the soothing sound of ocean waves crashing onto the shore, this coastal themed cross stitch box will allow you to drift into a state of calm while providing just the right amount of crafting.
