Stich Alongs
We believe crafting should be accessible to everyone, which is why all of our stich alongs are free.
Each SAL pairs a free scripture-inspired cross stitch pattern with a reflective podcast led by two Lutheran pastors. Want to share your experience with a crafty friend whose not into cross stitch? Many of our SAL's provides a curated list of craft options including knitting, baking, and creative writing. While all of the cross stitch patterns are our own brain children, the other craft options are either special guests for the series or referrals to other crafters we love.
