Wallace and Gromit celebrate their 20th birthday today!

Wallace and Gromit, an eccentric inventor and his trusty dog, started their careers in A Grand Day Out, which was released two decades ago (yes, it's been that long!).

T
oday they celebrate their 20th anniversary with Aardman animators by making a guest appearance on search engine Google - pictured having a cup of tea in their usual fashion!

Other Aardman characters such as the adorable Shaun the Sheep have always proved very popular with stitchers but now there’s chance for you to stitch some of your other favourite characters.

In a new range from
Anchor,
characters such as PC Mackintosh, Lady Tottington and Hutch the pig are all available to stitch - perfect for any Aardman fan!


We've found that
Angelstitches.com
have a fantastic selection of the Wallace and Gromit kits by Anchor - so take a look!

“Now that’s cracking Gromit!”
