The Cross Stitch Podcast is a podcast all about (you guessed it) cross stitch! In the podcast I share all my knowledge I have learnt about cross stitch over the years including some tutorials, material talk and discussing the benefits off cross stitch. It is split into series of around 8-12 episodes per series. In each episode I share a cross stitch pattern/kit/book or the week. You can subscribe to the podcast and leave a review on iTunes here.
