Hullo! I’m Curegreed, and every third Friday of the month I’ll be telling you all about what goes on at the degree in The Royal School of Needlework. I’m a student and I’ll be sharing as I’m going. It’s nothing official, but Mr X Stitch thought it’d be interesting. Here goes nothing!

This month, we’ve got something rather different on… It’s our business module! Named ‘contemporary applications’ it is a five week programme designed to show us how to make money from this bizarre little craft we’re learning. And how are they teaching us to do that? With kits! Our task is to design a counted stitch design for a particular market. We may choose whichever market we like, provided we do our research into that market and attempt to make a commercial product.
Emily Peacock comes in three times a week to talk us through the process of becoming a kit making goddess, we’ve also had lectures from experts in bespoke to order kit making from none other than The Royal School of Needlework, and essentially we just get to play around with some simple cross stitch. It’s like a dream! I’m finally getting round to stitching up all the craft kits from Radical Cross Stitch I’ve been meaning to forever, and now I can call it work! May these five weeks stretch on forever.
