Welcome

Stitches Events is pleased to announce our return to the Midwest with a new event, Stitches Boutique Minneapolis. Minneapolis is a hub of fiber arts and creativity. Come for four days of fun, friends, and fiber!

In-person Stitches events offer top-notch education with some of the best instructors in the industry. The 68 classes on our roster suit a wide range of interests in the fiber world, from knitting to embroidery, from weaving to spinning to dyeing, and from color to fit.

The Stitches Market is carefully curated to provide inspiration for fiber artists of all kinds. We welcome exhibitors with yarn, fiber, fabric, notions, and tools to tempt Makers and make their creative dreams come true. This intimate shopping experience features Midwest regional fiber arts businesses and select national companies.

The Stitches Fashion Show, the Stitches Makers’ Showcase, and the Stitches Playground offer other fun ways for the community to connect.

Located on the famed Nicollet Mall, the Hyatt Regency Minneapolis is the premier hotel meeting and events venue in downtown Minneapolis. The venue has lots of cozy seating areas and luxury amenities. A variety of restaurants and retail shopping are steps away on the Mall.

Join us in August for an unforgettable weekend!

4 Full Days of Classes
+ 68 Stimulating Classes for every interest
+ 17 Expert Fiber Arts Instructors
+ An Amazing Market
= 1 Incredible Weekend!
