March Stitch 'n Bitch
đ§ś **Whatâs Stitch ânâ Bitch all about?**
Think of it as the sassier, yarnâcovered cousin of a book club â but with far fewer rules and far more laughter. Stitch ânâ Bitch is a global community built on the simple joy of making things with your hands *while* having a good old natter.
Whether youâre into knitting, crochet, embroidery, crossâstitch, weaving, or just aggressively untangling a ball of yarn you found at the bottom of a drawer, youâre in the right place. The crafts are the excuse â the banter is the real event.
Expect:
đ§ľ Stitches dropped, picked up, and occasionally sworn at
𪥠A mix of beginners, pros, and âI just like the vibesâ attendees
đŹ Chat ranging from wholesome catchâups to delightfully juicy gossip
đ The kind of easy, silly conversation that makes Monday nights feel a lot less Monday
Itâs cosy, itâs creative, itâs a little cheeky â and everyoneâs welcome to pull up a chair and join the chaos.
What to bring:
B.Y.O. yarn, knitting needles/ crochet hooks or whatever you use to craft.
Knitting/crochet or sewing patterns if applicable
Work in progress craft projects
Agenda:
Arrive to the Alexandra at 7pm, there will be a table booked. Come say hello and let's get crafting!
Art CafĂŠ - We provide the studio, you bring your creativity!
A creative, pressure-free studio space in an arty cafĂŠ. We provide all materials and inspirationâuntutored activities choose from our menĂş : still life, collage, painting studiesâor bring your own project and work independently.

**We will gather again around 13:00** to show our artwork to each other, chat, and have some lunch.
**The CafĂŠ is located in the garden, close to the Exhibition Road gate. We will gather near the food area. The prices are in a typical gallery price range; you might prefer to bring your own coffee or other beverage. â Since the V&A is just across the road, you can choose whether you'd like to sketch at the V&A or at the NHM. If the weather is sunnyđ¤ď¸ and dry, outdoor painting in South Kensington is also an option! Feel free to create whatever inspires you. Drawing inside both museums has rules; we are permitted to use graphite, coloured pencils, liners, or white chalk (not charcoal, crayons, or wet media). Remember, large bags must be left in the cloakrooms (for a charge). Security may search your bag; sharp tools are prohibited.**
**Admission is free, but booking a free ticket is recommended to avoid waiting at NHM. For ticketed exhibitions, please check the prices online. [https://www.nhm.ac.uk/visit/whats-on.html](https://www.nhm.ac.uk/visit/whats-on.htmlTate)**
