You will receive more floss than you need for the design (allowing room for happy accidents), and in the unlikely scenario that you run out, we'll send additional thread free of charge.
If you prefer PDF patterns only, we'll provide everything you need to know (fabric colour, size, thread lengths and colours) so that you can use items from your stash or take a trip to your local craft store and source the supplies yourself.
North American Adventure will be spread across 4 months, starting in May and finishing in August. To join simply tap here on 12th April at 5pm UK time and we'll take care of the rest.
Your first pattern piece will arrive in your email inbox on 22nd May at 12 midday, and the other pattern pieces will follow in June, July, and August.
North American Adventure is counted cross stitch, so there's no printing on the fabric. it's really easy to personalise the design if you wish.
