National Stitch Day 2nd August 2014

National Stitch Day this year was celebrated by hosting an event at the Central Library in Blackpool.

Not sure how many visitors to expect we had prepared lots of mini kits. We were very pleased when people started to arrive, and soon the tables were full and we had to bring in extra seating!




Around 15 visitors enjoyed an afternoon of stitching and many of our members dropped in to help out, have a chat and brought along samples of work to be displayed.





The librarians kindly loaned us lots of lovely books to look at and to give us even more ideas and inspiration!





The event was a great success and it was fantastic to see so much enthusiasm. Many people asked if we could do it again soon - I am sure we can sort out something.......
