You can listen to me chat about the That Time of Year Christmas Cross Stitch Along in the episode below or keep scrolling to read all about it.
It’s that time of year!
The brand new mystery stitch along is here and you can enjoy 9 weeks of surprise stitching where you will transform fabric and threads into a beautiful and festive banner to hang up this year (and every year after that)!
That Time of Year Cross Stitch Along details
- We start stitching on the 11th October 2024 and finish 13th December 2024
- The pattern is a full, counted cross stitch with colour blocks and symbols.
- It uses 13-15 different colours of DMC thread (depending on what palette you choose). Some of the colours require more than 1 skein but most are under 1. The full list of supplies are inside with links to my favourite and recommended brands.
The releases
- The pattern is released weekly via a platform called Teachable. The layout inside works great for SALs and all of the parts of the pattern are in the same place for you!
- It’s quite simple to use, you just need to create an account and log in each week to either download the pattern or read it right inside Teachable. But you will also be emailed the pattern each week to download.
- The pattern will be made live every week, on a Friday at around 10 am BST.
Video tutorials and Zoom calls
- Each week there will be a video for you to watch that walks you through the new release of the pattern.
- At the end there will be a tutorial showing you how to make a banner from your design.
- There will be weekly online meet-ups via Zoom calls throughout this SAL to come together online for some community stitching.
FAQs about the Storybook Cross Stitch Along
What is a Stitch Along?
A stitch along is an event where we all stitch the same pattern together over a set number of weeks/months for a certain length of time. So for this SAL we are stitching together for around 9 weeks and the pattern parts are released every week on Fridays.
What do you get in this SAL?
This is a fully digital product so you get instant access and nothing in the mail. The PDF patterns will be released weekly starting Friday 11th October 2024 and there will be a list of the supplies you need once you’re inside plus links to where you can buy them.
Is the SAL for a beginner?
The design itself is relatively simple but it is quite large with a little backstitching in. So if you are a total beginner you may find it harder than others, but it will still be possible for you to stitch.
Can I see the SAL before I buy it?
If you scroll to the bottom of the page there is a button for you to have a peek.
When do we start stitching?
We start stitching on Friday 11th October 2024.
How does the ordering process work?
Once you click to join, you will be taken to checkout at Teachable, where the SAL is hosted.
Please note, that some countries and states will have extra Tax/VAT added on for digital download laws and state taxes.
You can then choose to pay via credit card or PayPal. The SAL is priced in $ but your payment provider will convert it for you if you are paying in a different currency.
You can also make an account with Teachable, you just need your name and email and then you can set a password later. This is how you can log in and access your SAL whenever you want.
I can’t wait to see you inside for another fabulous stitch along!
