This year for our 11th anniversary, Stitchology would like to give back to our community, so during the fall of 2022 we are hosting a food drive for The Storehouse New Mexico.  It works in 2 parts!

Part 1.  Canned and non-perishable donations--we will have a box inside the store that you can drop off any canned or non-perishable food into and we will get that to The Storehouse  I understand they love it when they get peanut butter and cereal donated!

Part 2. Hot Pad Challenge!--I am asking you to make and donate hot pads.  They will be due Tuesday, November 8th 2022.  Our panel of expert judges will select winners.  Winners will be awarded prizes which will include Stitchology Gift Certificates and gift baskets.  The hot pads will then be sold and all the proceeds will be donated to The Storehouse of New Mexico.

Make a cash donation to The Store House Here: https://www.classy.org/campaign/stitchology-hem-in-hunger-challenge-and-food-drive/c430912

Hot Pad Challenge!

Help us raise funds for The Store House New Mexico by entering a Hot Pat into our Hot Pad Challenge!  It's fun to do and the rules are simple.  In November winners from each category will be selected and prizes will be awarded.  We will then sell the hot pads and donate the proceeds to The Storehouse!

      1. Hot pads must be donated to Stitchology (2502 Rio Grande Blvd NW            505-242-3288) on or BEFORE November 8th 2022.

      2.  Hot pads must be handmade or hand embellished.  We don't care               what medium or techniques you use, but we don't want anything                 storebought (although if you want to buy a premade one and paint             or embellish it- YES PLEASE!)

     3. Hot pads must be a minimum of 8" around.  We don't care what                   shape it is as long as it's big enough to safely use.

     4. If sewing your hot pad, please use a minimum of 2 layers of a                       natural (cotton, wool, or bamboo blend) quilt batting or use a layer               of Insulbright so they are safe to use!
