2023 Wheel of The Year Stitchalong
Stitching to celebrate the festivals in the Celtic Wheel of The Year.
Join the stitchalong
Through the year we will add beautiful stitched mandala inspired motifs to a large design (approximately 12" in diameter).
The stitchalong is a wonderful way to celebrate the course of the year with some quiet stitching.
The motifs will be released one at a time, a few days before each festival in the Celtic Wheel of The Year.
Included in the stitchalong
- Template for the finished design.
- Eight mandala inspired motifs.
- Three sizes of each motif.
- Colour and stitch suggestions.
- Stitch tutorials.
- Access to a dedicated stitchalong membership area.

Can I do the stitchalong as a beginner?
The stitchalong is suitable for adventurous beginners as well as more advanced stitchers. You will need to know how to transfer a pattern to fabric. Knowledge of a few stitches would also be an advantage: French knot, lazy daisy stitch, cross stitch, chain stitch, back stitch and running stitch. There will be no tutorials for these 'basic' stitches through the stitchalong. There will be tutorials for more advanced stitches or techniques.
