It's National Embroidery Month!

by Marcy Singer from The Stitching Hour by Amanda Lee

Did you know that February is National Embroidery Month?! I have to confess that I had no idea until I saw it in one of the newsletters I receive.

Here are some links to blogs and online magazines that are celebrating with tutorials, patterns, and giveaways:

Threads Magazine

Sew For Home

The Sewing Loft

Blog Her

Erin Middlebrooks

Country Traditions Newsletter 

Bobby Pin Bandit

Naturally, Angus and I are celebrating at the Seven-Year Stitch too. Classes are twenty-five percent off for the month of February, and we're giving patrons ten-percent off their total purchase.

Our author friend Amanda Lee is also celebrating. She's offering two readers a chance to win a signed paperback copy of The Stitching Hour and a cross-stitch kit. If an international reader wins, he or she will be provided with an ebook copy of his/her choice of ebooks in this series.


To enter the giveaway, please comment on this post with your name and email address. Winners will be chosen using a random number generator and announced on this post on February 15, 2016. Good luck!

    What a pretty photo. I haven't done any embroidery in a long time. Thanks for the chance to win.
