register for autumn stitching club
Attention stitchy friends and lovers of fall! You can now register for Autumn Stitching Club!
If you've never made paper-pieced hexagons before, this is a great opportunity to learn a new craft. They're easy, portable, and highly addictive. If you're already a hexagon machine, you'll love this no-pressure project that comes in bite-sized pieces.
Each week in September, October, and November, club members will receive a tiny pattern of a fall favorite. There are no holidays here, just things that signal the start of autumn, my favorite time of the year. Without giving anything away, you'll get yummy fall foods (a Wild Olive staple!), pumpkin farm finds, and a harvest of good things.
The patterns will go on hexagons, which, together with non-embroidered hexies, will be appliqued onto a pillow/cushion cover. Of course, you can make anything you want, but if you follow the Autumn Stitching Club project, by the end of the season, you'll have a project to remember this time! Also, the patterns are the same basic size as those from Summer Stitching Club, so if you choose to combine them all in a project, you can do so with ease.
Best of all, in addition to the patterns and project, participating in the Autumn Stitching Club will connect you with other stitchers. Community stitching, even from a distance, is pretty amazing.
When you purchase your club membership, you'll be able to download the welcome PDF immediately. In that PDF you'll find the complete supply list and project layout. Each pattern PDF will be emailed to club members on Mondays, starting September 2nd.
2013 Autumn Stitching Club is just $5.00 when you sign up early. September 2nd the price will go up to $8.00.
Yes, I know it's still August, and if you're like me, you still want to hold on to summer. But I'm not gonna lie. I've already been enjoying Target's Archer Farms Pumpkin Spice coffee. It's only a matter of time before Starbucks has Pumpkin Spice Lattes, and then you know it's fall. Even if it's not quite feeling like autumn (or if you're in the southern hemisphere and it's NOT autumn!), this is a good season to be prepared for!
Missed Summer Stitching Club? You can still join and get all of the patterns and instructions!

DeleteI'm so excited to start this project! And fortunately for me I'm going to California from Australia in September, so the seasons will actually match up!
ReplyDeleteI am a super newbie sticher. Do you recommend autumn stiching for someone with no experience?
ReplyDeleteI think you could still do it. Embroidery instructions aren't part of what you'll get in the subscription, but those instructions can be found in my Embroidery Basics here on the blog. And all of the patterns can be stitched with just 2-3 stitches.
DeleteFor the rest of the project, hexagon and pillow cover instructions with step-by-step photos are included.
I signed up this afternoon! Can't wait to begin!
