We are back from the Knitting and Stitching show (Alexandra Palace, London) where we really had a great time: thank you to all of you who came to visit us!

We can now present online some of the new products launched during the show. We are particularly pleased to welcome the new designer Les Boutis de Lucie (you can see one of her lovely "patchwork kits" on the left). Doing so, we widen our range of products to other stitching techniques even if we remain a French boutique selling mainly cross-stitch products and stitching accessories.

We've had also many requests for kits during the show so we'll add some regularly from now on. Here is the 1st one: Amitiés Alsaciennes" by Le Lin d'Isabelle.

We are currently away at The Knitting and Stitching Show, Alexandra Palace, London (6-9 October 2010, Great Hall, stand n°E27).

Meanwhile the online boutique remains opens and you can place an order as usual. (Why not have a look at the gorgeous latest design by Madame La Fée, Passion des Roses?) but please be aware that some products are momentarily  unavailable (in the "Embellishments" section). They are indeed in limited edition and we can't know what will be the stocks after the show.

All orders will be processed as soon as possible when we get back (11 October). 

Have you noticed there is a quite unusual category on SoCreaStitch called "a stitcher's life"? 

This is the part of the website where you find patterns for Biscornu pin cushions and also a lot of designs featuring needleworks in general with embroidery scissors, reels of threads, antique sewing machines, ribbons and lace, haberdashery ... You find also other kind of products provided that they are related to the stitchers' life: ready-to-stich Stitcher's cases made in France, buttons and decorative pins in the shape of cotton reels, etc.

We've been back from our summer break for a week now and busy processing all the orders that came through while we where off. Thank you! For those of you who are still expecting a delivery, don't worry, it should be here very soon now as all the pending orders have been sent out. This means that our usual "goods sent out withing 24h after the order" standard applies again.

So we can now focus on new designs for you to enjoy!
We are about to receive several new Christmas patterns by Alice and Co, among which this one. They will be online whithin a few days as well as a selection of lovely patterns in another of our favourite theme: "A stitcher's life". 

This gorgeous new design by Madame La Fée, just released in France, seems to be the perfect image to announce SoCreaStitch's summer break.

During this time, your online boutique is open and you can place an order as usual. But our standard delivery time won't apply. There will be no goods sent out from 1st August to 15th August. Deliveries will resume from the 16th August and our usual 24H delay for packing and shipping from the 24th August.

Enjoy a wonderful summer full of stitching!

Are you a cat lover ? Do you like to stitch them? Or are you looking more for a dog pattern?

We take the opportunity of this new darling design by Tralala, the well-named "Les Coquettes", to present in this article our most recent cross-stitch patterns featuring our beloved pet friends.

The gorgeous

If you are still looking for the perfect design to bring along in holidays, take a look at this article where we have gathered some of the new French cross-stitch patterns recently added to our collections. Some relate to Summer, others to Christmas, kids, babies, etc.

This month, the beautiful pins by the French designer Butterfly Couture are highlighted in two magazines: Cross-Stitch Gold and the World of Cross-Stitching. Many thanks to them!

You will find all our decorative pins in the Embellishments section or just by clicking on the image.

They are all in limited edition and the designer never makes twice the same (which would be just impossible). So if you do like one set of 6 pins, do not hesitate too long!

Releasing this new design English Dolls by Malin Maline, we've thought that a small review of our "least French designs" could interest you, as they are all dispatched in our various categories of cross-stitch patterns.
Many French designers (and stitchers) do like what we call, here in France, "le style anglais": colours, tea, cakes, many topics from across the Channel inspire us.

Thanks to the 47 new designs that have been added since the beginning of April, we are very pleased to display from now on more than 460 French designs.

The 5 colourful and lively characters of the pirates' series by Au Chat qui Dort (see left) are amongst them. Obviously so are the 15 designs by our new designer "Alice & Co" and the fairy tale series by Madame la Fée (see the dedicated articles below).
But there are many more! (Re-)discover them in pictures in this article, just to make sure you didn't miss one!

As announced in our April newsletter, we are very pleased to welcome in our collections the designer Alice & Co.
We've just put online 15 of her designs, among which many hearts patterns (well it is the season of weddings, isn't it?). More will come very soon featuring another season of the year many of us like to prepare in stitches...
Meanwhile there are already lovely and funny designs to discover in our selection. Just have a look at it and tell us what you think!
