Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving is in 3 days and my family starts arriving tomorrow but I'm actually ready. I spent this past weekend cleaning the house and my body is still feeling the effects. If I cleaned like that every weekend, I could be a few dress sizes smaller. Not gonna happen.

FYI

The Stitch & Frame Shop will be CLOSED on Wednesday Nov. 23 and Thursday Nov. 24. We will be open normal hours on Friday (11/25) and Saturday (11/26).

Need a new holiday project? Here are some new designs and accessories that will be arriving soon.

Only 10 days til Thanksgiving!

I can't believe that it is only 10 days until Thanksgiving. I guess I'd better start working on my menu and get shopping. I probably will not have much time for stitching this week since housework will be my top priority. I'm going to have a house full next week therefore, I must clean so that it can get messed up again (ughhhh).

There are some really nice designs on the way. Take a look. There may be a future project or two you might just have to get.

COMING SOON!

From Hands on Design

The final two designs in the "To the Beach" series.

HAVE A GREAT WEEK!

Remember to VOTE!

Remember, tomorrow is Election Day so go out and cast your vote. I did not have a chance to vote early so I'll go do it tomorrow afternoon. The best thing (to me) about this election is that once it's over the TV ads will go away. I'm sick of listening to all of them.

Enough about that, on to better things (like stitching). Take a look at some new designs that will be arriving in the shop soon.

COMING SOON!

From Mill Hill

Based on designs from Amylee Weeks, these kits contain 18ct. Aida, beads, floss, needles and chart.

Choose Happiness Makes Your Heart Smile

From Bobbie G. Designs

Two great holiday designs. "Glory to the Newborn King" looks very bright and festive. I don't like stitching on black but I would this piece because the black fabric is what makes it "pop".
