I haven't! I don't drive which is the other reason it sucks not being in a city...but actually the only stitching group I even know of is up in Newcastle so if she has pointers to more local ones I am all ears! A friend of mine just started a knit and natter over in Guisborough if that counts for anything.
Also if it turns out I already know your wife from cross stitch Instagram or something I swear to god...
Aah I see, there's a Facebook group called Yorkshire Stitching Retreats that she joined but she's not been to any yet. Tickets sell out pretty fast unfortunately.
Really weird seeing Guisborough mentioned on the internet.. it was only a couple of weeks ago I was there!
That makes sense, sometimes I forget that the cross stitch world mostly still runs through Facebook! Will have to try and login sometime. I'd love to get to something like that one day but they tend to be quite pricey, luckily have a few stitchy friends in a Discord so we can do our own virtual retreats but I admit it's not the same.
Guess we're just gonna need to set up a group in Guisborough somewhere, by the sounds of it ;)
