Yesterday I went to meet Jo McIntosh, a Textile Artist in St Ives and to meet her Project group "St. Ives in Stitches"
It was a lovely exchange of ideas among this group and introducing the 25 Million Stitches Project. Later I joined Jo in her 1. Craft Afernoon at Cafe Art.

Today's stitching, it is slowly growing, a meditation on how we are all connected.

I only learned last week about this project and was really intrigued.
Even so, it is short notice as the project deadline is 30. April 2020 I wanted to take part, preferably with other local people joining me.
After a conversation with Diane Cox, we decided to give it a go.
The aim is to stitch panels with as many stitches as possible!
