Just over 6 weeks to Christmas!
And we cannot wait! Not least for our Christmas Shopping Event day coming up on Saturday 18th November. Our fabulous Tuesday knit and natter community have been so generous making a selection of delightful, knitted and crocheted handmade Christmas tree decorations. Wait until you see them. These will be gifted free to every customer who spends £10 or more shopping with us in store on Saturday 18th.
And we have our Festive Sewing: Make Your Christmas Presents Saturday 1-3pm. Wouldn’t it be wonderful to give a gift of something handmade for your nearest and dearest this Christmas? Join us at Stitch to make a Christmas present with the wonderful Pat Stevens and help support our small business to keep us serving you sewing into the New Year and beyond. You can choose to make an infinity scarf, apron, cushion cover, make-up bag, tote bag, tea towel or pouch. Choose from one or more of these items to sew as a gift or to make for yourself or maybe you have some other ideas you’d like help with. (Christmas is a challenging time of year for our side of retail and our small business and in light of this we are offering 25% discounts on any fabrics bought on this day during the workshop to help you along.)
So please don’t miss out on shopping local at Stitch! on Saturday 18th.
🎄We really do appreciate your support at this time of year🎄
