No, it is free to browse The Stitchers' Village. Just as you would look around a real village, you may roam around TSV and enjoy the various free aspects such as the Library, The Designer Studios and Shop Information. You can also receive a free subscription to The Stitchers' Voice, our newsletter, by subscribing to our email list. We typically send two emails per month - one to announce the posting of the newsletter and a mid-month update. You will not need to sign in to any area of TSV, other than the social area which is password protected. You must be a member of TSV to win any of the competitions within the Village or in the Village Newsletter.

The Tea Shoppe is the link to the TSV Social Area. This is available to all members of TSV but admission is only granted to members who go through a password protected sign-up procedure and agree to the Terms of Use Agreement. Each member has a profile and this includes a place to post photos of your projects in albums and have members post questions or comments about them. There is a forum where all members can read and post under a variety of topics and get information on games and classes. Members can have "Pages" for their specialty stitching, home craft business, etc. There is a chat/messaging system for visiting in live text chats and this is where some of the games are held as well as designer hosted chats. Please remember, if you post and receive no reply, remember that those members listed may be in another area posting to a discussion or group. It does not mean they are ignoring you. We ask that you help to maintain a friendly environment.
