About Us

The ANSG has affiliated with all the new Independent Stitch Groups (ISGs) in the North of England, from Alnwick

down to Richmond and Leyburn. We hope other related stitch and textile groups will join the group.

The ANSG is developing in stages, depending upon the needs and support of the ISGs and funding.

The initial objectives of the ANSG are:  

To foster the art of embroidery and related crafts in the North East by:

  •  The provision of a communications hub for the regional ISGs, offering advice and information provided by other regional ISGs and       relevant groups.

  •  Facilitating meetings of ISG officers and members to assist in the formation and development of ISGs.

  •  Assisting ISGs in collaborative ventures, such as shared workshops/courses, exhibitions and fairs.
