It's a Mystery!

Guess what we are doing this summer? 

It's a mystery! Well, the Woolen Oak Mystery Stitch-A-Long, that is. We are joining with eleven other designers to offer a free pattern each week, all summer long. And it is going to be fun!

So each Monday, a different designer will release a free digital pattern, which will be free for download for the duration of the week, after which it will be available for sale. We will all be offering kits for sale, with all fabric and wool material needed to complete each block, and some of the designers are offering thread kits for sale as well. The kits will become available for purchase on the day the pattern is released, and we are preparing to be ready to ship as soon as orders are placed. We have seen some sneak peeks of most of the blocks in progress, and we are excited! We think you will be, too. 

As for the rest of the details, well...it is a MYSTERY!! 

You can join the Facebook group for current updates by clicking here.

If you are on Facebook, joining the Woolen Oak Mystery Stitch-A-Long group will introduce you to each of the designers. Every other day, one of us is introducing herself—or in our case, herselves—and offering a chance to win a $50 gift certificate on her website. What a great way to get to know these talented wool appliqué artists. And perhaps to meet some new friends who share your passion. At this point, the group is over 2600 people strong. That's a lot of new friends!
