Long time, no update! Oh..... and 29% off.
My apologies for the lack of updates. Things have been crazy the last several weeks with my family and it's definitely getting in the way of my stitching time and newsletter writing time. Things are headed in the right direction so back to business as usual and stitching of course.

May: Canvasworks and Labors of Love
Market Requests: The Spring Needlepoint Show was such a success last year that is back on the books this year for March 21-23rd. Currently there are 118 vendors attending. It should be quite a fantastic show. If you have any requests please do not hesitate to send me an email. debk728@stitchersgardenil.com It is the best way for me to know what you are all looking for. Pictures and item numbers work best as it makes finding the item much quicker. If you have any questions about which vendor is attending please feel free to call the shop 630-946-6216 and I will check the list.
Old Life, New Life: Do you have a canvas that you love but the colors are outdated? Have decided that you like stitching with silk instead of wool? Bring in your piece and we can help you find ways to make it updated. Dottie, Nancy, Kim, Maryellen, Patty, Joanne (our newest needlepoint expert) and I all love to pull threads and will work with you to expand your talent and your knowledge. (And maybe even push your boundaries a little.) And if all you want to do is basketweave we can help you let the threads do all the talking.
I hope you all have lots of time for stitching. If you finished reading my whole newsletter please come in on Friday, February 28th or Tuesday, March 3rd and mention the 29% off sale. You will be eligible for Saturday's discounts, but you must mention the newsletter. Happy stitching and hope to see you all soon. Deb
