The Hive Newsletter – March 2026

It’s spring! The start of spring heralded two new arrivals in the shop: the Potion of Luck and the Gosling! Fun fact: they both use five of the same colours! You can prise DMC 932 from my cold, desaturated hands.

There was no video game magic in March, but that’s par for the course when I’m preparing for Autism Month! Speaking of which…

Last year, in April, I was officially diagnosed. Though it was a huge moment of my life, I was already full-steam ahead with my Autism Month plans, so I didn’t get much opportunity to celebrate!

So, this year, I’m celebrating! And I’m doing it by being autistic as possible. Prepare to politely nod and indulgingly smile as I spend an entire month sewing my special interest. Iykyk.

Of course, since Autism Month usually overlaps with Easter, I miss out on Easter fun (the fun is eggs). So here’s this month’s freebie, the Egg Hunt!

If you’ve got little stitchers (or just enjoy a bit of colouring-in), the pattern comes with a blank egg chart that you can colour in yourself, then sew. I can’t wait to see what you come up with!
