Cross Stitch Camp 2026

Challenge Details:

Cross Stitch Camp is a virtual summer camp put on by Colorado Cross Stitcher that all cross stitchers are welcome to participate in! There is no cost and no signup - just pick a new project based on the challenge that month, then post your finished photo before the last day of the month.

June 1 - 30: Stitch a pattern from a magazine. It can be old or new. If you don't have any cross stitch magazines, we have a bunch of vintage ones in the shop. Just add a note to one of your regular orders and we will pick a magazine to include in your order for free! Start your pattern June 1st or later, and finish by the end of June.

July 1 - 31: Stitch a pattern that is either patriotic, or includes the colors of your country's flag somewhere in the piece. Start your pattern July 1st or later, and finish by the end of July.

August 1 - 30: Try something new - a new count, a new linen, a new designer, a new finish, a new color scheme - whatever stretches you in your stitching journey just a bit! Start your pattern August 1st or later, and finish by the end of August.

Post a picture of your finish, any time during the month but definitely by the last day of the month.

You can post your starting photos (floss, fabric, pattern cover) on Instagram. Please tag us: #coloradocrossstitcher and #crossstitchcamp2025 so we can see what you're working on!
