Cross stitch project for Mental Health Awareness

Post by StitchingOutStigma »

Hi all, I'm looking for volunteers to join a project called Stitching Out Stigma.

People from all over the UK, and some from further out, are making individual 10"x10" squares which will then be sewn together to create a giant cross stitch, all to help promote awareness of mental health issues.

If anyone wants more information, we're on Facebook and we also have a website http://www.stitchingoutstigma.co.uk

A returning stitcher, loving how stitching gives me a quiet mind.

Thanks for all your replies! It's great to see that people have as much interest in this as we do :D

@maemae0410 yes it's OK that you're in the US! We have a few stitchers over there already and it's wonderful that our little project is reaching a worldwide audience!
