Get the Point!

What's New

Just when I thought no one was paying attention and I could sneak one by you... busted! No friends, your computers were not acting up last week...I was! I've been slow getting back into the swing of things after vacation and didn't get the newsletter out. My apologies. Amazing how many of you called the store looking for the newsletter.

A reminder that October 1st is the finishing deadline for your treasures to be back in time for the holidays. Below are some adorable ornaments that are a perfect gift and a quick stitch.

Coming Soon

There is only one seat left at our September 20th, 3 session class...Wake up and Smell the Coffee. "Wake up" and call the store so you don't miss out!

Our second "Christmas in July" bargello ornament class will be held in August. Call the store for the date and to sign up.

Always try ending your thread under an area of the same color. If you end a dark thread under a light one there is always the possibility of the dark showing through to the front.

Stitch of the Week: This class meets every Friday and Saturday from 10:30 – 11:30AM. Each week we teach a new decorative stitch, as well as help you with both placement and fiber choices. Buy a new hand-painted canvas or one of our line-drawn SOW canvases, or use a canvas from your stash. Cost is $5 per class.

Stitching Social: The Stitching Social starts when the Stitch of the Week class ends, on both Friday and Saturday. It provides an opportunity for you to share and learn from other stitchers while working on one of your unfinished projects. There is no cost involved, and we encourage our customers to become part of this fabulous support group.

Studio Time: On Friday 11:30 – 12:30PM you have the opportunity to get help in a group setting with stitch and fiber advice for old and new projects.
