WEEKLY UPDATE!
Whew! To say that both Monica and I are feeling exhausted yet exhilarated would certainly be an understatement! We’ve just finished packing up the final trunk shows for the Great Tennessee Yarn Tour and are in the process of reorganizing the shop. Our heartfelt thanks go out to all the visitors who stopped by our little corner of East Tennessee. We were thrilled to welcome over 120 new customers, which was simply amazing! We hope to see y’all again next year.
Now, we’re turning our attention to sprucing up the shop for Autumn and showcasing all the new Marketplace Releases we’ve received. We even have a dazzling Dolly Parton-inspired vignette coming your way—great idea, Monica!
As we enter the “ber” months, we are excited to kick things off with Sampler September. If you're a cross-stitch enthusiast, you may already be familiar with this event. September is the perfect opportunity to work on that sampler that's been sitting in your WIP pile or even start a new one! This Sampler September, we are offering 25% off all in-stock samplers throughout the month. Check out our web page for a collection labeled Sampler September Sale. Plus, why not bring your sampler to the shop on Saturday, September 19th, when Susan O’Bryant from Sweet Wing Studio will be visiting?
By popular demand, we will also be hosting our DIY Paint Workshop on Saturday, September 12th, from noon to 2 PM. Be sure to email or call the shop to reserve your spot, as we only have six seats available.
This week, we have new Needlework Marketplace releases in the shop from KiraLyn’s, JBW Designs, Hello from Liz Mathews, Sweet Wing Studios, and Madame Chantilly. We’ve also restocked the beloved Gifts for Santa from Madame Chantilly.
Please note that the stitchery will be closed on Friday, September 4th, and Saturday, September 5th, while Monica and I take a little time to rest and recharge after this busy month. Additionally, on Thursday, September 10th, the stitchery will open at 2 PM and close at 7 PM.
