Thanks for posting about us! Feb. 6 is going to be a great show! Hope to see you there

what’s up…

So sorry about the giant pause in posts on our website! We have been having some problems with our site but thanks to our ‘IT department’ a.k.a Chase (Megan’s bro and Heidi’s son… we told you the whole family was in on this, right?), we’ve got everything back under control! Please keep the faith and continue to visit us both in the store and on our trusty website!

Project Runway So, have you been watching our hometown girl , Valerie Mayen??? Join us & meet her for episode 3 of Project Runway Season 8 at Prosperity Social Club in Tremont on Thursday, August 12th at 8:30pm. The show starts at 9, so get there early for food, friends, and $10 steak night at Cleveland’s most chill hang out bar! There’s an awesome back patio and drink specials every night!

Join us for our BurdaStyle sewing club…this month we have goodie bags directly from the NYC office that Heidi received during her visit last week. You can see photos on our Facebook page. We’ll show you how to download all of their awesome patterns, free ones, too! And, bring a garment or two for some tips on refashioning…hope to see you there! This Saturday, August 7th 1:00-4pm. It’s free, and fun! BYSM

All week I’ve been thinking… sweet, hand sewing club is Thursday! Silly me, thankfully one of our facebook fans corrected me in time! Hand stitching club will be on August 5th at 6pm… be there!

It’s time again for our hand stitching club to meet! We will be meeting on Thursday, July 29th from 6 – 8 pm here at Stitch Cleveland. Bring any of your hand work to stitch up during our meeting. We’ll be on hand for help or just for a little stitch circle socializing!

Gather your stash of unfinished projects in preparation of Church of Craft. We’ll be meeting (as always) on the last Saturday of July, the 31st, from 1 – 4pm. We hope to see you there. Last month we had a good mix of projects going on. Curtains, dresses, patterns, etc… you’ll fit in just fine!

For the summer we’ll be closed on Sundays and Mondays. But don’t worry… if you want to come in on a Sunday we’re happy to schedule some time to be there for you!

Did you know you can make pants longer? I often have to work my magic on my husband’s pants since he is very tall. He likes his pants on the long side so I like to add a facing to the hem… look for a tutorial and pics tomorrow!

Etsy.com is using the just launched Meetups Everywhere tool to throw a huge worldwide party on June 18 (Etsy’s birthday). Etsy challenged local creative communities like ours to create, join or step up to organize an Etsy Craft Party in their town, so of course we want to celebrate!!

Get your stitch on at Stitch Cleveland, and your local handmade community. Let’s celebrate our rockin’ crafting community right here in Lakewood; Etsy-ers or not, come and see what it’s all about. Bring your craft to show off, and a snack to share. June 18, 6pm. Please RSVP.

Hey, don’t forget to register for the stuffed animal workshop for Saturday, May 20th from noon – 3pm… $45.

A great local artist stopped in Stitch today to show some of her latest work… amazing handmade precious metal charms in the shapes of needles and buttons! She is working on some pincushion and thread designs as well. We think they’ll be amazing and are looking forward to offering them at our shop!

BurdaStyle was a blast today. Although our group is still small it is mighty! Lots of pillows were made today as well as a few garments, a bag, and lots of little birdies! Hope to see you next time!

Don’t forget about our new BurdaStyle club… we’re meeting Saturday, May 1st from 1 – 3pm! It’s a great chance to use the equipment at Stitch for free during this fun social event!

Meet us at Stitch from 1 – 4pm on April 24th for our monthly Church of Craft meet-up… all are welcome!

Saturday, April 17th from 9am to noon we’ll be at the Lakewood Public Library helping people go green and sew book totes! Volunteer or register to make a tote for free by contacting Lakewood Public Library!
