So much fun! A time to learn something new or just stitch with others on a focused project.
LEARN TO LOVE LINEN: Before the holiday crazies fully set in, let’s take a minute for ourselves to learn stitching over 2. We’ll stitch on 25 ct. Lugana which is an evenweave and easier to learn on than linen. This class will also cover stitching those fancy threads you see hanging on our wall – Classic Colorworks, Gentle Art and Weeks Dye Works. Design: P is for Pumpkin

GRAFTON HISTORICAL SOCIETY
So exciting! We are a go for starting reproduction work with the Historical Society! Have my first assignment and my brain just cannot shut off! 😀 A beaded bag is their choice to begin with. Cannot wait to get started and eventually get to the incredible samplers that are there. Nothing like breathing new life to our history. Stay tuned as we progress on this journey. And if you haven’t, do visit and check out the beautiful work they have there. I’ll be working on this project every Sunday from 2-4PM on site. Jim will be at the shop to help you out. Come visit either at the shop or at the Historical Society. 🙂
WHAT ELSE?
Have been working with Marcia at Cross Stitch Wonders and will soon have three exclusive designs to share with you. They will only be available through this shop for the next year. It’s been so much fun creating with her. Can’t wait for you to see them!
All orders from Needlework Marketplace have arrived and are out for your viewing pleasure. 😀 Hundreds of new designs are in the shop between Marketplace and all the other designers putting out their weekly goodies.

2024 Needlework Marketplace – Threaded Needle
Work on the thread wall continues as we make room for more! I do believe the next thread to start bringing in will be Needlepoint Inc silk. That’s not 100%, but pretty darn close.
GOOD HEALTH WISHES: Several folks are recovering from some major surgeries, illnesses and personal loss. You are always on my mind. Collective thoughts can be helpful. Just know that you are wished the very best on your recovery journey and I look forward to seeing you.
There are a few chairs available for Stitch Nite. Don’t wait too long. I hate telling folks we’re full! Look forward to seeing you soon. ~Alice
