Summer is for Stitching 2019

Now summer is here, we have a great selection of portable projects for you to take on your travels.
Luggage tags and credit card holders make great gifts and are a quick stitch. You can personalize them with just the right canvas.

There are compacts with either an eye canvas or lips canvas in stock as well. The compact is well made and  would be a functional yet pretty gift.

We have a great selection of box canvases. Mermaid, designer, floral, holiday as more canvases are in stock.

Here is one finsihed.


If you need help with a project, we have a great group class on Wednesdays. Everyone works on their own project so you learn from their projects as well as your own.  Stitch and Chat from 1-4 on Tuesdays is a great way to get stitching time and make new friends.
We look forward to your next visit!

Magnets

Just a few on the holiday magnets we have in stock as well as many other themes. You can never have enough magnets.

                                                                                                                                                                                

Tweezers

For removing threads with ease, this is a handy tool.

                                           
                                                                

Thread O Stat

Unlike a typical hemostat, which has a toothed or jagged jaw preventing a firm grip, the Thread-O-Stat is more like tweezers – only better! You will be able to grab a hold of that little thread, lock onto it tightly for easy removal, and the Thread-O-Stat won’t let go. You won’t have to worry about this tool getting lost in hubby’s toolbox because it will be easily recognizable with its happy red color . Approximately 5-1/2in long x 2-1/2in across handles when closed.

                                                 

GIFT CERTIFICATE

You can’t go wrong with one of our gift certificates. That special someone can use it for that canvas or item they have been wanting.  A much appreciated holiday gift. 

Of course we have a wide array of other tools as well as canvases, clubs, classes to choose from. Stop in and we will be glad to help you with your choice.
