Stitchery Stories To Be Launched Summer 2017

Welcome!

Stitchery Stories podcast is in the final stages of being built.

Interviews are being scheduled and recorded.

So if you have come here and there is nothing to listen to as yet – please bear with me.

Work on this took a back seat to paid client work and fell a little behind my original plan of launching in early 2017.

So I’ll be a few weeks later than I had hoped.

If you want to sign up to the Fan Club then I will let you know when the show launches and you can join in the fun from the beginning! It is also the place where any news and special offers and information will be shared by our lovely guests.

So I will be back soon with more news and some great Stitchery Stories to share.

Take Care, Susan x
