The Kingdom of Mourne Embroidery Guild is a stitching group that also have people that knit, although that is not the focus of the group. The group aims are to promote the skill of embroidery and promote local crafts, as well as bringing in tutors and workshops. Meetings are once a month on the first Wednesday of the month in the Spice Tree in Kilkeel.

Membership is open to all over the age of 18 (we will take younger at the decision of the commitee), and membership is £30 for the year. Non-members may attend for a total of three visits at a fee per night, but after that they must then make the choice to join or not.
