TIP OF THE MONTH
|
|
PLEASE SAVE YOUR
THREAD TAGS!!!
During the time we were closed, many people called and emailed requesting threads they were trying to match to finish a project. Many didn't have the type, color or dye lot of the thread(s) they needed and this resulted in frustration for all
of us.
A GOOD HABIT TO DEVELOP
IS TO TIE OR TAPE A SMALL PIECE OF THE THREAD TO IT'S TAG.
I like to keep all the tags (for each canvas) in a baggie in my project bag.
This way when you bring in a project you will have all the info you need to match threads you need more of. It's also great to have it for reference if you are calling to check on whether we have a particular color/dye lot in stock - save yourself a trip.

We were thrilled to welcome our first customer on Wednesday, May 22nd as she was wearing a mask and immediately sanitized her hands inside our front door. Since then the shop has been busy with people dropping off projects, kitting new and existing canvases and just browsing. We are VERY HAPPY to welcome our loyal customers back. We apologize in advance if you have to wait outside on your next visit. It hasn't been happening too much but since we have a limit of 5 people (including employees) in the store at any given time, sometimes there will be a short wait.
PLEASE BE ADVISED......
As many of you know, due to our quarantine time at home, many of you have been stitching up a storm, thus we have seen a LARGE increase
in the amount of projects being dropped off for finishing. We
STRONGLY suggest you to turn in your holiday finishing as early as possible. Our finishers have already started to push up their deadlines as they anticipate having many more items to finish.
PLEASE NOTE OUR DEADLINES IN THE LEFT COLUMN and BELOW.
