Why not have a go at doing a little stitching everyday? This tracker fabric can be used for so many things! Why not track weather patterns? Your moods or habits? Activities you’ve done? How much water you’ve drunk or sleep you’ve had?

This tracker fabric includes a small square for every day of the year for you to fill in as you please. During 2023 I used it to track the daily maximum and minimum temperatures in my home town of Liverpool and it is absolutely fascinating! But not only that, having a small project that I can pick up and put down as I wish, and watching it grow for a full year, has been a brilliant, mindful and relaxing experience. There are so many different things that you could track: weather patterns, moods, habits, activities, health or medical observations (I rather like the idea of a menopause symptoms tracker!)

The fabric has been designed to fit in a 12″ embroidery hoop (those little squares add up to a big circle!) and the fabric itself is a lovely lightweight organic cotton calico. The calico has been bleached with organic dyes to give a lovely soft white finish, perfect to make those thread colours stand out!

There are two options available:

Option 1 – Fabric only – Simply the tracker fabric and a stitching guide.
Option 2 – Basic kit – The tracker fabric, a piece of white cotton (to double up with the fabric), a 12″ Elbesee embroidery hoop and 2 project cards (to store your threads)
