Happy Memorial Day...early!

The Stitch & Frame Shop will be CLOSED on Monday May 25th for Memorial Day. I hope everyone has a fun and safe holiday. I have no plans right now except to stitch, stitch and maybe stitch some more. Of course, these plans (like all others) will probably change. Since, we will be closed on Monday, there will be no blog next week (sorry). Just think, after 2 weeks, I should have a lot to blog about. 

COMING SOON!

HAVE A GREAT WEEK

AND A

WONDERFUL HOLIDAY!

New designs are on the way.

Good Morning. I hope all mothers had a very nice Mother's Day. Mine was very relaxing. I didn't have to cook a single meal (that was totally awesome and the best present of the day). I even got some stitching done. I started a new project on Sunday (a Halloween piece) and I can't wait to work on it some more this week. 

There are some designs that will be arriving in the shop soon...take a look!

After a lengthy wait, we shall soon have two more months in the "monthly" series. 

It may have taken a while, but I think the results are worth it. The designs for both of these months look great.

Good morning! Can you believe that it is May already? Wow, spring just sprung and soon summer will be here. I know my kids are excited because they only have about 22 days left of school.
