The Craft Table

Newsletter subscribers already know (check your inbox) how excited we are that Carolyn is coming to The Craft Table for a fabric release party for her new Memento collection with Ruby Star Society - I guess now you do too!!

As the date gets closer (August 22nd), we will share more details of this exciting opportunity to meet Carolyn, see her gorgeous quilts, learn about her new fabric, and connect with one another. In the meantime, save the date and reserve your seat. You can find the link in our bio or on the website. Hope to see you there!

Our summer hand embroidery stitch along starts today, and the first video is available on YouTube (if you’re subscribed to the stitch along list, the newsletter went out before the link went live but it’s up now)! There’s a link in our bio for the Playlist, and here’s the schedule for June. Today is getting ready for the stitch along by gathering and preparing our supplies. Next week we begin embroidering! There’s still time to join in the fun 🧵

It’s been a while since I posted on social media as I’ve been busy, busy with the detail work that goes into preparing for our summer embroidery stitch along. I am so ready to reconnect over slow, summer days spent stitching (mostly virtually) with so many of you over the next 12-13 weeks!

Thank you for all the lovely comments, emails, and messages regarding the stitch along! All the enthusiasm makes me so happy 😊

The first stitch video goes “live” on YouTube on June 6th. If you’re interested in joining in or don’t know what I’m talking about 😜 and want to know more, there are links in our bio to the various places to sign up, watch tutorials, and/or purchase supplies.

Let me know if you have any questions or just want to say hi!

Join us this Saturday (May 16) for our monthly Open Studio. Stop by between 11 and 2 to stitch, shop, and socialize! I am taking a break from Open Studios for the months of June and July, so get your fix while you can 😉

For those who preordered summer stitch along supplies, I have my fingers crossed that they will be ready for pickup on Saturday (there have been a few hiccups with deliveries), but if not, we are on schedule for the May 20th date 🤞

It’s about that time again!! Our (third annual) summer hand embroidery stitch along begins June 6th. This is a virtual (free) stitch along with weekly stitch videos posted to YouTube.

Stitching with others is more fun! Tag a friend who thinks so too 🧵 I hope you will join me in slowing down and carving out some creative time for yourself 😊

Thanks to everyone who came out for yesterday’s Open Studio! It’s always nice to stitch and chat with friends 🧵

Our next in person event is a timely (think Mother’s Day and graduation) hand embroidery class to make a compact mirror. A few simple stitches, luxurious threads, and floral designs become a treasured keepsake to give or keep. Tag a friend who enjoys creating and register together. Link in bio has all the details.

Tomorrow (Saturday) is our Open Studio!Stop by 11am-2pm for stitching and shopping. See you then 😊🧵✂️

Thank you to everyone who joined us in celebrating the inaugural International Analog Day!! I did snap a few pics on my cellphone but otherwise we were all about analog activities. We had stations set up for puzzle making, coloring, letter writing, card playing, and crafting, but for the most part, everyone wanted to chat and stitch. We definitely succeeded in unplugging and connecting!! Thank you to everyone who participated - you’re the best!! A big shout out to Shannon for instigating these gatherings 😊🧵
