100% That Stitch!

100% That Stitch! is Girl Gang Manchester’s biweekly online craft community, connecting over Zoom and creating in whatever medium you fancy. Join us to draw, paint, knit, sketch, sew, stick…whatever floats your creative boat! #notjustforstitchers! It doesn’t matter if you’re an expert or beginner, this is a time in all our busy lives that we can dedicate to making and get together with others in a relaxed, social space at this ‘unusual’ time. We hope to make some crafty connections, build a warm and friendly group and make this a regular IRL event when circumstances allow.

Each session we will provide an optional theme for inspiration and you’re welcome to bring along whatever you’re working on, in whatever form. There’s no pressure to show off your talents or to explain what you’re doing, although we are keen to hear from people who would be happy to do short demos of basic crafting skills. We’ll provide some conversation starters and the opportunity to meet new people, chat and potentially learn a new skill. We want the group to be flexible and evolve with ideas from its community and would love to have you on board. Any questions? Please get in touch through our social media channels.

Previously this has been a free event, and we would love this to continue, however we also want to make sure our overheads are covered. With that in mind, we are no longer offering free tickets, but have tried to keep the ticket cost accessible to all at £2, with an option to support the work of Girl Gang volunteers and facilitators further if you can afford to. We appreciate everyone's financial circumstances are different and that it is a very difficult time for some. If the ticket cost is a barrier to you attending, please get in touch. 

100% That Stitch! is open to people of all genders, races, sexualities, classes, disability inclusive- if you have any specific accessibility needs in regards to the sessions, please let us know and we will do our very best to accommodate. For parents, single mums or anyone who is worried about making an 8pm start, don’t worry, we will still let you join the meeting when you can.

Think meeting in a cosy café or bar with like minded people to craft, create and chat, but from the comfort of your own home (for now)! Bring your craft project and your beverage of choice for an evening of being 100% That Stitch!
