The Greater KC Stitch Off is officially underway, and the sewing has begun!

For six weeks, amateur and professional sewists from across the Greater Kansas City area are taking on a new themed challenge each week, putting their technical skills, creativity, problem-solving, and personal style to the test.

Inspired by the fun and energy of competition shows like The Great British Sewing Bee and The Great British Bake Off, the Stitch Off brings that same spirit of friendly competition to Kansas City while shining a spotlight on the incredible sewing talent in our own community.

Each week, contestants receive a new challenge and create something entirely their own. You can follow their progress, see their finished pieces, learn more about the people behind the sewing machines, and cheer them on all the way through the competition.

Vote for Your Favorites!

Community voting is a big part of the Greater KC Stitch Off. Scroll down to the Sewists section, click on your favorite contestant, check out their weekly creations, and cast your vote.

You can vote for one favorite or several. Come back each week as new challenge pieces are added and see how the competition unfolds.

Your votes help build momentum for the contestants while supporting the mission of The Sewing Labs: an inclusive and welcoming community teaching the legacy of sewing for employment, entrepreneurship, and enrichment.

Proceeds from the Stitch Off help support workforce development, community education, and other opportunities created through the power of sewing.

The six-week competition culminates in our Runway Finale on November 7, where we’ll celebrate the contestants, showcase their work, and bring the Greater KC sewing community together for one fantastic evening.

There is a lot more sewing still to come, so follow along, cheer loudly, and most importantly, VOTE!
