Come for tea and stitch with me

Stitched by Monika Kinner-Whalen

Isn't this little border sampler by Monika of My Sweet Prairie just gorgeous? And better yet, if you're in Saskatoon (Canada) you can take a stitch class with her and learn how to do this. Read about it on her blog. Lovely work, Monika!

Christmas Stitches Embroidery Class

Got a list of peeps to craft for this holiday season, but no ideas? Our very own Carina just let me know about an online embroidery class she'll be doing from October 25 to Nov 21. Ahem, that's 3 days from now!

There'll be lessons and projects and patterns, and if I know anything about Carina (which, I think I do) it will all be amazing stuff!

To learn more about her class and see some sneak peeks, visit her blog. Or, hop on over to register for the class. If you're a Feeling Stitchy reader, be sure to enter the coupon code: CHRISTMASFS (so she'll know where you came from). Bravo, Carina - looks like fun!

You're Invited... Free Embroidery Class at Madewell!

I'll be teaching a free embroidery class at the Madewell store in Soho on Thursday, Dec. 4 from 7-9 PM with an awesome designer, Cal Patch. You're all invited! You may have seen those little embroideries above on Craftzine and Craftgossip - we'll show you how to make a mini holiday embroidery of your own. A free mini hoop, denim square, tracing paper, needles and thread will be on hand so you can craft your own mini masterpiece in the store. We'll even have some goodies from Sublime Stitching to take away!

Madewell is an awesome new clothing brand - as part of the event you can get $25 off any denim. There'll also be a DJ and complimentary drinks in case your embroidery suddenly goes south. ;) I know that not all of you live in New York, but please put the word out to anyone who does!

Madewell has a Facebook page you can check for more information, and RSVP. I would LOVE to see and meet you all in person, whether you're a beginner or an old pro, we can all learn from each other!

Madewell is located at: 486 Broadway (at Broome), NY NY (click for a Google map) Please come out and make your own mini embroidery with Cal and I! :)
