THANKSGIVING HOURS
I will be closed on Thanksgiving (of course!), open on Friday 11/24 and closed Saturday 11/25 through Monday 11/27 for the holiday weekend. Be sure to get your stitching fix before then! Just feel like browsing? My website is open 24/7.
KCN TRUNK SHOW
Don’t forget! The KCN Trunk Show is only here for another week!
KCN represents about a dozen designers so even if you don’t see anything you want in the videos here, you can check their website, www.kcndesigners.com and have a nice browse. Any of their designs you order from me during the Trunk Show (now through Thanksgiving) will be 20% off.
The videos are here:
Small Stocking Ornaments and More
Large Floral and Nutcracker Pieces
Try pausing the video to catch the number and give me a call to order – or email me if you just need a price and size.
WEDNESDAY CLASSES CONTINUE
Need a little help with your canvas? Need some fresh ideas? I teach every Wednesday from 2-3:30 p.m. YOU MUST SIGN UP AND PAY IN ADVANCE so call or come in to sign up. The fee is $15. The fee is not refundable and can not be applied to a future class unless I am closed due to snow or ice.
WHAT’S NEW
I just received some new canvases from my Market Order including the above sea otters from Pippin and new PDQ Kits. These kits have everything – the 2 x 3″ painted canvas design, thread, instructions and a little frame to finish your piece into. They make great gifts stitched or unstitched! There’s a red-headed woodpecker, two baby birds, a crow on a pumpkin and a moose in the woods.
I also bought the above owl below canvas at Market and it FLEW out the door when I showed it on LNS Day. Let me know if I can order this cute owl for you. It’s called Einstein’s Owl and is on 13 ct., the design area is 8 x 10 and it retails for $108. I just think that he is so cute with that heart shaped face! Imagine the fun stitches you could choose.
PreMax Red Serrated Scissors for Metallics
I just restocked on these handy and cute scissors. They’re great for cutting your metallic threads like Kreinik. These scissors feature a comfort grip red coating and a serrated blade. Frequent cutting of metallic threads will dull your regular scissors so consider making a small investment in a pair of serrated scissors. $28.
TABLE AVAILABLE FOR NEEDEPOINT GROUPS
The table is now available for FREE for friends or groups wanting to get together and stitch during business hours. I thought I would try this out for a while and see what kind of need there is in the stitching community. You MUST reserve in advance as I do have classes to schedule around. A second table can be added if you have more than 8 stitchers. I recently hosted Stitch Club Detroit and it was a great group! Just call me to reserve the table, 810-694-3040.

CHRISTMAS WISH LIST
Do you have a particular canvas or thread selection you’re hoping for? Let me know and I’ll help your loved ones find the perfect gift for you. Remember, I also have gift certificates available in any denomination.
SNOW AND ICE could be coming soon.
Please always call or email me if the weather outside is frightful. I commute about 35 miles so in the event of a bad snow or icy roads, I may elect to stay home that day. I will always keep my Facebook page updated and the answering machine so that you can call or check online.
I hope that you all enjoy the Thanksgiving holiday with family and friends! Here’s a picture of my little turkey. She looks sad but I promise you, she is NOT.
