A print-by-mail cross-stitch subscription
good mail for makers
Each month, a new cross-stitch pattern arrives in the mail — beautifully printed, with the floss and Aida cloth to stitch it. A calm, screen-free pleasure, and a lovely gift for anyone who makes things by hand.
A few lovely things, mailed in an envelope straight into your mailbox.
A crisp, printed cross-stitch chart with a clear symbol key and a full floss list — designed to be readable at the hoop, and lovely enough to keep. About 1800-3800 stitches, achievable in a month. With at most 10 colors.
Includes the exact embroidery floss and a 8 × 8 inch piece of 14-count Aida cloth, pre-cut and prepared with just the right materials to complete the design.
Whether it's a 3-month taste, a generous 6-month gift, or a full year of stitching — every envelope arrives with the pattern, the floss, and the Aida cloth to stitch it. Add a one-time starter kit at checkout if you'd like a hoop and needles too. Patterns come one a month. Nothing renews.
