Welcome to the Over Two xStitch Open Call Contest!

If you're like most of us, you spend a lot of time (and probably money too!) on your cross stitch projects, but now you have a chance to make all your hard work pay off — big time — for you and your family.

Over Two sponsors numerous needle and fiber arts contests throughout the year to promote and support our close-knit community, which includes designers, shops, stitchers, and even our families who put up with our obsession. The current Open Call contest will award an estimated $20,000 in prizes and raise money for our four-year, $10,000 scholarship available exclusively to the family and friends of needle artists and knitters.

Every Open Call contestant will enjoy a handful of benefits:

  • Chance at an estimated $20,000 in total prizes
  • 20% off coupon to the shop of your choice
  • Two free patterns created exclusively for the contest by top designers
  • Online portfolio to show off your projects
  • Free tools to promote your portfolio and gain votes
  • Eligibility for family and friends to apply for a four-year scholarship

Don't wait to get started, and feel free to enter as many projects as you'd like to increase your chances. Best of luck!
