About the Town Stitching Club

Where do you like to stitch? Around the house? Out in nature? While about the town? Or maybe as you travel the globe? No matter where you pick up a needle, if you like stitching cuteness, I'm pretty sure you're gonna enjoy the latest Wild Olive stitching club! The About the Town Stitching Club is an online pattern club that combining embroidery and English paper piecing. It's suitable for beginners and fun for experienced stitchers too. This project features six embroidery patterns representing favorite spots you might visit in your hometown. In fact, the patterns might just map out a perfectly laid back day! And actually, each pattern is made up of three smaller patterns that you can use together or separately. So technically, you get 18 small patterns, plus a bonus shop for the center of your mini quilt! Each pattern grouping fits on a 2-inch hexagon, and that's where the English paper piecing comes in. Along with the embroidered hexagons, you'll also make extra pieces and everything will fit together to make a mini quilt. Basic instructions for English paper piecing, quilting, and binding are included, though it's helpful to have some knowledge of embroidery. If you can set aside a few hours a week for this, you really can have a hand-embroidered, hand-pieced, and even hand-quilted mini quilt in eight weeks. All while connecting with others in the club by using the club hashtag: #AboutTheTownStitchingClub.
