Thank you!
Yay, you clicked through. Thanks for your interest in becoming a test stitcher for Miss Red, I'm really excited to be adding new members to my little band of stitching addicts & can't wait to share my ideas with you, there are so many of them whizzing around my head that I just don't have enough hours in my days to stitch them all out!
How will it work?
My plan is to allocate out Miss Red designs to test stitchers based on their preferences. The short survey below will determine what types of projects are best suited to you & the time you have available. Once I receive your submission I'll invite you to the Facebook group or email you.
When you're offered a design you'll be sent a preview of how it will look. You then get to decide if you want to stitch it or not. If you haven't got the time right then, or it's not really the kind of thing you like stitching just let me know - I promise I won't be offended or annoyed at all & the feedback is useful either way. Please please though, only accept a project if you know you can complete the whole thing & commit a number of hours per week to stitching it. The point of test stitching is to get quality checked, timed & thread counted patterns out there for sale faster than if I was to continue stitching them all by myself.
Once you accept a project I will take your address & send your FREE project pack. This contains:
If you should require hoops, frames or any other supplies stocked on the Miss Red website you can buy those with a 10% discount (keep an eye out for other bargains, offers & prizes by joining the mailing list.)
I'll primarily be keeping track of everything using the Facebook group, so if you have a profile on there then that's fantastic because I'll be sharing patterns generally to the group as well as asking specific people to do certain projects for me based on what I know you're likely to enjoy. If you haven't got an account then not to worry, with the information gathered here I'll still be able to tailor pattern offers to your preferences & keep in touch via email.

Once you accept a project I will take your address & send your FREE project pack. This contains:
- paper draft cross stitch chart
- preview picture for reference
- stitching journal printouts to record time spent, any amendments you've made & general comments
- aida cut to size allowing a border, overlocked if requested
- genuine DMC threads in the amounts suggested by my pattern software (it's not always 100% accurate so if you run out then I'll send more free of charge)
- needle(s)

What will you be expected to do?
In exchange for your free kit & Miss Red discount this is what I ask for:
- stitch the design neatly, accurately & reasonably quickly
- take regular Work In Progress pictures - these CAN be shared wherever you like, but must be credited to MissRed.co.uk
- take a good quality photo of the completed project - please don't share this anywhere but the secret group until I've added my watermark
- write in the stitching journal whenever you stitch, returning a copy at the end of each project
- keep me posted on how you're getting along - you can use the Facebook group or email me directly
- be polite, positive & professional when discussing your Miss Red stitching projects
- DO NOT SHARE charts with anyone, these will be pre-sale designs & it's absolutely essential nobody else gets their mitts on them before they are perfected & up for sale - only my super-duper special stitching team get that privilege!
Still with me? Still excited? Fantastic!
Lets get cracking with this survey then & find out just what kinds of projects you can't put down ;)
