Hosted by Heidi Klum, aspiring fashion designers are given a design and sewing challenge each week followed by a runway show where the judges decide if they are "in" or "out". The show is a fun addiction and the designers are always a colorful group to say the least!

About Stitch....


Many people have asked how Stitch came about and this is the story...
A few years ago (about 8), I met three fun and creative friends (Sally, Diane, and Lydia) in the tiny costume room at Indian Hill High School. With Sally at the helm, we stitched and laughed our way through many productions. After our children graduated, we moved onto dolls for the Salvation Army.

I read about a concept in California called "the sewing lounge" and decided that Cincinnati needed one of those -a fun spot to gather, sew and socialize in addition to learning new skills. And, happily, that is just what has happened. We are just getting started and we hope you will enjoy all that Stitch has to offer!

*Sally is now the Costume Designer for The Children's Theater
*SDL and I have been joined by Sally's daughter, Elizabeth, and Diane's daughter, Odile. On many Thursday nights, you can find us at Stitch working on this year's auction doll.
