TextileArtist Website / Stitch Challenge

If you haven't found it yet, TextileArtist.org is a website dedicated to promoting textile art (hence the name!), and is full of interesting articles, images and interviews with textile artists - ideal for a bit of inspirational browsing.  

From Tuesday 24th March, they are setting up a community stitch challenge:


"Every Monday for the next five weeks a different textile artist will deliver a burst of inspiration especially for you in the form of a short video workshop and a hand stitch challenge that you can do at home over the following few days."



What do I need to do to get involved?

  • First of all join the private Facebook group for the challenge here. It’s 100% free to take part.
  • Tomorrow once the first challenge video with Sue goes live we’ll send you an email to remind you to check it out and start stitching.
  • As you progress through the stitch exercise, we’d love to see what you’re creating so we’ll be encouraging you to post images of the work you create in the group. But there’s no pressure if you’d prefer not to share your results. That’s entirely your call.
  • Over the next few days, Sue will be in the Facebook group to get involved in conversations with you and your fellow stitchers and offer guidance when it’s needed.
  • Then on Friday at 3pm Sue will be doing a 30 minute Facebook live Q&A to answer your questions about the challenge.
But if you really don’t want to join Facebook, no worries! We’ll post the challenge video on the website later in the week so you can check it out there.
