We are a group of friendly, like-minded stitchers of all levels from in and around Bournemouth. Interested in all types of textile and needle work, we welcome new members.

During the meetings we may work on our own projects or have tutor-led workshops (see 2025 programme below), where we explore new ideas, skills and techniques.
