Our World Stitching Contest


Renee at Gone Stitching emailed me this week to alert me to an original design challenge contest her shop is co-sponsoring with Planet Earth Fibers.  They are asking stitchers to come up with original designs based on the theme "Our World" using at least five Planet Earth Fibers threads (and as many other brands as you please).  The $25 entry fee (plus shipping) brings you a canvas in your choice of thread count, with the standard design area marked out, and the five Planet Earth Fiber threads you list in your contest application. You design and stitch something and return it by early next fall and the entries will be judged in several categories.

The winners will take home Planet Earth Fiber selections, a Gone Stitching original painted canvas, or both.  Details are on the Gone Stitching website and there is a link to photos of the various Planet Earth fibers you can choose from for your kit.   While you are there, browse the revamped website to see what all Renee and Michelle have been up to, and don't forget their weekly radio show.

Good luck stitching, everyone!
