What is the Guild?
The Contemporary Guild of Peculiar Blackwork operates from the attic of Ravenscroft, staffed by an elite team of researchers employed on competitive nut-based remuneration packages. We produce blackwork embroidery patterns for people who find the usual offerings a bit cheerful. Our patterns have been stitched across forty-odd countries by people of excellent taste and questionable decision-making. Dave approves every design before release. Standards are maintained.

The Guild is accepting initiates.
A Stitch-Along is a community embroidery event where everyone works through the same pattern together, at their own pace, with no judgement and occasional chaos. The Guild's community has over 7,000 members stitching along. The next SAL is open now.
