Stitch Bingo is the most playful of our Woolly Wellness stitch projects so far.
What was this project all about?
This small project has been lots of fun!
We sent out a big Woolly Wellness pack at the beginning of the project to our over 50s stitch team from Northfield and Selly Oak constituencies. The kits included the resources stitchers would need over four months:
– a unique bingo card template
– canvas, bundles of yarn, and a needle
– Instructions
– Tea bags and packets of biscuits!
For stitchers able to access the internet we run ran four online stitch-a-long and natter session on Zoom and sent out a set of new motif designs to stitch into their bingo card each month too for four months.
At a celebrate event in July the stitchers came together to meet, chat and play three games of BINGO using their bingo card artworks. These were digitised.
We are currently creating a downloadable resource to gift to community groups and care homes in the area so that the fun and games can continue…
Four of the Bingo Card artworks – all unique, just like their stitchers!
