Greetings All - With the taste of summer we've been having it's really time to stock up on some fun summer projects! 

COLUMBUS MARKET - JUNE  We're off to the Columbus Market and will be ordering many new items throughout the weekend.  Look for new treasures in the shop, on the Web site and in our enews toward the end of June.  For some of the latest charts and leaflets, you can always visit Hoffman (www.hoffmandis.com) or Norden (www.nordencrafts.com) to see a sampling.  If you see things there or on the web that are of interest, bring us your wish list for those items until our website gets caught up! 

BIRDS OF A FEATHER TRUNK SHOW - JUNE   Don't forget to come in during June and see the wonderful canvases from Birds of a Feather.  You'll see some of their cross stitch designs in needlepoint canvases as well as many other colorful designs, fun for decorating and your summer stitching!  Purchase the threads for your canvas that day and get 15% off of those with 20% off the canvas!

STITCHING WEEKEND Once again, we are staying close to home for our next Stitching Weekend.  So many of you have told us that you really enjoy not having to drive too far from home, but still are able to get away and re-charge!  We will be stitching, relaxing and just having some great fun at the Crowne Plaza in Timonium, MD on October 17th - 18th.  Cost is $115 for Saturday and Sunday, which includes lunch on Saturday and breakfast on Sunday; dinner is on your own on Saturday night (there are some great nearby restaurants). We have reserved a block of rooms for anyone wishing to stay overnight.  Email us, call the shop or sign up the next time you visit. 

Wishes for Wonderful Stitches,

Melinda
