A positive maker community for all creative souls. Come on, let's make something beautiful! A member driven community for anyone who uses fiber and tools. Maybe.

Quilting, embroidery, knitting, crochet, wool applique...the list could go on. We gather once a month for our signature event, The Gathering. We feature guest speakers and authors plus a pop up shop filled with carefully curated tools, notions and fibers. There are breakout sessions and classes plus seasoned instructors on hand to help you with your project. We have fun giveaways, door prizes and other fun things throughout the event. Twice a month we have Maker Meet-Ups where we converge on mom and pop businesses, have a bite to eat and/or a drink while we work on our projects. In the spring and summertime we have Stitch on the Square every Saturday on the Square of Mount Vernon, Ohio. Bring a chair, a cold drink and gather with us as we all work on our projects and enjoy strolling through the Farmers Market. Don't live in Ohio? That's okay. We will have a once a month ZOOM event and our website features a blog and helpful tools. Secret handshake? We can't tell you unless you show us your pin. Why a membership? Our membership fee is $2 a month ($24 for the year) and that money pays the venue fee and speakers. Plus, if you are a member, you can get up to 25% off selected products. Woot!

Only a few Fall Gathering tickets remain!

Join us for a cozy day built around stitching, good food, laughter, and spending time with people who understand why having one project in progress is simply not enough.

We’ll gather around a beautiful fall harvest table featuring a baked potato bar loaded with toppings, hearty stuffed pepper soup, homeade bread, jams, and a variety of dessert bars and sweets. Hot c***r, cocoa and iced tea round things out. Come hungry.

Of course, there will be plenty happening beyond the food. Sign up to bring something you’ve made for our Bring & Brag, settle in for some stitching, play a few games, and keep your fingers crossed to win a door prize giveaway. Our speaker will be Kim Weitkamp.

And of course, everyone will head home with a special gift bag!

Good food. Good people.

We have witnessed time and time again what happens when the women in our group come together. Right now, we have a need in our community at the Lil Pantry of Mount Vernon.

Items that are easy for kids to open without n adult around: pop-top cans, easy-open bags or pouches, and peel-off lids.

Many kids come home from school and need food. Some are also in need of extra nutrients, so we are asking for a few PediaSure chocolate or strawberry shakes for kids.

Other great options are canned chicken, StarKist tuna salad or chicken salad pouches, pop-top Chef Boyardee, and anything else that is shelf-stable, nutritious, and easy to open. Pop-Tarts and similar foods are easy, but they don’t offer much nutrition, and kids who need food Happy Beanthat feeds their bodies.

We will be collecting the items in front of from 9:45 to 10:15 on Saturday.

From there, it will go directly to the pantry, where it will be received with a whole lot of gratitude. You guys rock! 🌸

PLEASE: Make sure all items are clean on the outside, have no ripped labels, and are not expired. It’s a matter of respect and dignity.

This weeks Style Vibe features the work of our member Sammy- Samantha Turner . She finished up this colorful Horology wrap by Pam Meek Expression Fiber Arts

Here’s what Sammy had to say about the making process.

The pattern is “Horology” and it comes from Expression Fiber Arts (the designer is Pam Meek). I used their Happiness Hues ‘Luster’ sport mini kit.

Once I got into it, I did enjoy making it, but it took me a while to “have fun”! 🤣 while I absolutely mastered it, I am still not a fan of the ssp stitch! lol 😂

As someone who isn’t a particularly fast knitter, I probably wouldn’t do it again unless I found the PERFECT color palette for myself. One large rainbow “shlanket” is enough for me.

My biggest tip is to definitely do the beading. It’s additional work, and frustrating at times because the beads are so small, but the end result is SO worth it.

We are meeting this week! Yes, there’s a festival downtown but it starts at 11am and we start at 10am. So we’ll see you there. 😊
