Looking for a peaceful start to your weekend? 🌿

Join us at Stitch Kitchen for our casual, drop-in Slow Stitching Saturdays. Whether you’re a lifelong maker or have never picked up a needle, this is a welcoming space to slow down, breathe, and enjoy the rhythm of hand-crafted work.

The Art of Slowing Down
In a fast-paced world, slow stitching offers a much-needed "digital detox." Engaging in crafts like embroidery, quilting, cross-stitch, or tatting has been shown to:

Reduce Stress: The repetitive motion of hand-stitching acts as a form of "moving meditation."

Boost Mental Well-being: Focusing on a creative task helps quiet the mind and improve mood.

Build Community: Share tips, stories, and inspiration with a group of like-minded makers.

What to Expect
There’s no pressure to finish a project or follow a strict curriculum. This is your time.

Bring Your Own Project: Dust off that unfinished quilt or the embroidery hoop that’s been sitting in your drawer.

Find New Inspiration: Browse our haberdashery for unique treasures or get lost in our extensive library of craft books.

Expert Guidance: Our skilled tutors are always on hand to help you troubleshoot a tricky stitch or teach you a brand-new technique.

Join Us on Saturday mornings for some togetherness, and quiet body doubling! We also serve a cracker cup of tea. 

When: Every 3rd Saturday of the month 10am to 12pm - you are welcome to stay longer (we close at 4)

Where: Stitch Kitchen 474 Princes Street

Cost: BYO project - koha (suggested $10)
Using provided supplies $15 and get a free lesson to start you off!

No booking required—just bring your hands and a curious mind. We’ll have the kettle on!
