We have just got in a lovely collection of hinged boxes from Funda Scully. They finish up into wonderful 3 Dimensional boxes with the included metal hinged lid. Our local finisher does a good job making them up for finishing, they will open at the hinge and you can store small objects inside the fabric lined interior of the box. They make great gifts for the person who has everything, memory holders for special occasions, beautiful holders for your stitching trinkets, sweet toothfairy or memento boxes for childhood treasures, or fabulous seasonal decoration.

We just received a little Christmas ornament and stand up trunk show at the shop until January 30th. We are also running a discount of 20% or more off the canvases. Here is the link to view the show (By clicking each image you will be able to view multiple canvases of the same theme). Below you will find a few designs.
![]() Hi, Our little family would like to wish a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone! We hope you have a lovely holiday season and get to enjoy the little things which make you happy in life. I was smiling when this Great Egret came to visit us while I was finishing this post.(I caught one of our feral cats, Stanley also smiling while he watched the elegant bird stride away) We are so fortunate to live in this beautiful part of the world! If you order through the online shopping cart on our website, we will still be shipping out orders as they come in. It's the fastest way to order, and we usually ship within 1 business day when you order online. Thanks for Your Support and Stay Safe, Susan, Greg, Justin and Sandy Hi Friends,
Hope this finds everyone safe and healthy. Thanks for wearing masks when you come for pick up so we all remain safe. We are so lucky to have relaxing hobbies to calm us during these stressful times. We'd like to update you on the current finishing situation. Our finisher, Alina, has a momentous task ahead of her this year. She is working very hard to make sure that we can accommodate as many customers as possible, but it has been extraordinary year in many ways, and we have much more finishing to complete than is usual at this time of year. We will continue to accept finishing projects, but we can no longer guarantee that anything turned in will be finished by Christmas. The projects turned in will most likely have to wait until January for finishing, thanks for your patience with the finishing situation. On another topic, please remember to think of us when you need a canvas. We can order canvases from any designer in the country, and your purchases allow us to continue to remain open. I understand the allure of ordering online in the middle of the night but if you check with us first...we may be less expensive and might even have the canvas in stock. These are challenging times for small businesses and we should try to shop local. Justin has been working diligently on a shopping cart for the shop. This seems to be the way commerce is heading. It's a very slow process but items are added daily. If you have any questions - we will gladly answer via e-mail or phone. Thanks and stay safe! Patience will get us thru this mess. Susan, Justin, Sandy and Greg Another yarn company we love is Urth Yarns. For every skein they sell they help plant a tree, but that's not the only reason we love them. We love their yarns. One of our favorites to knit with is the oh-so-soft, short striping colors of DK weight cotton called Uneek cotton.

This is the second batch of photos from the trunkshow of Kathy Schenkel canvases. We have these in the store for a limited time through June 25th! Check out the beautiful models, mini stockings, popsicles and dreamsicles, domed figures, travel rounds, baby sleeping, tooth fairy pillows, oval ornament, small pilllows and purses below.
This month we have a large variety of Kathy Schenkel ornaments in the shop. They come on 18 count canvas and are very adorable when made up. There are several varieties to choose from; stars which make great ornaments, inspirations which are great as ornaments or as a sweet decorative wall hanger, treat bags which are dimensional and open on top and great to fill with a little special treat for someone special, and mini stockings with figures which have a little sweet sewn soft figure which matches the theme of each mini stocking included (for example a flamingo figure with a flamingo themed mini stocking or an angel figure with a nativity themed mini stocking, etc).
Kathy Schenkel's designs are always sweet when stitched up, and are great for beginners too since the patterns are not too complex. Check out the gallery of photos below. This trunkshow will be here only until June 25th. Let us know if you would like to have one shipped to you or would like to do a curbside pickup order today!
