Hey everyone, I know it's been a while since I've said anything on here, I went away with the intention of looking for proper funding for Stitch Away but in all honesty being back at work 4 days a week with a toddler and trying to get through normal life it has been pretty impossible to find the time to do it. Actually, that time away has given me a chance to reflect and work out what I actually want to do going forward and after a lot of thought I think it is finally time to put Stitch Away the Stigma down for good 💛

This has not been an easy decision by any means but truthfully I don't think I have it in me to carry it on, as much as it has been an absolute privilege and I have met and connected with SO many incredible people along the way, if I'm being completely honest with myself the journey for me has actually a lot of the time been pretty stressful. I have also learnt I'm not a person that can do something like this and leave it at the door and I've often felt the weight of the things people have very bravely shared with me on my shoulders. This was very apparent after the last exhibition and book launch, it took a couple of weeks but it all came out of me eventually!

So I want to thank each and every one of you again who have stitched squares, come to the support groups, sent messages or come to the exhibitions, I really mean it when I say it has been a privilege to have met you all, so many incredible, brave, strong and resilient humans!

There are still books available if you would like one and the wall hanging is available for people to use at their events if they would like to. I am hoping there will be a permanent home for it here in York at some point however if this isn't possible and anyone has any ideas or a place they think it would work as a permanent feature please let me know.

I'm going to enjoy my little family now and put this crazy adventure behind me!
All my love,
Natalie 🪡🧵💛

Ey up you lovely lot! So I have taken some time away to reflect and gather my thoughts. This is my vision for what Stitch Away the Stigma would offer next, I would love to know your thoughts and if you feel I have missed anything that you really feel you need. I am open to all ideas so please send me a message with yours! 💛

This obviously however would be A LOT of work so funding is vital for Stitch Away to continue at all, without money sadly it will have to end. I will be planning and looking into this properly over the coming months but an initial sum after speaking with an advisor to run it for two years and offer all of the above to those who need it is approx £100,000 😬 that is obviously an insane amount of money but it could be achieved in different ways, donations, funding etc. I just need to find it 🤞🏼 So that will be my mission. I believe we have a good thing going here and I think it's got legs to go a lot further and help a lot more people. If you have any funding ideas or a rich mate that's willing to support a good cause let me know 😝

My gut is telling me we can do this right?!

I hope you're all doing ok and thank you for sticking with me this far, it means the world 💛🪡🧵
