Tip of the Month
Scrap Canvas

You are likely to do several new stitches on future projects. That is part of the fun learning experience with needlepoint. You might want to have a scrap canvas to practice on. Put a small piece of the same mesh canvas on stretcher bars and use it to practice new stitches.

Greetings! 

It is that time of the year when we are asked about deadlines for finishing needlepoint. The Village Ewe  is  still able to have ornaments and belts finished in time for the holidays, so hurry in! It's not too late to stitch and "self finish" a gift for the holidays.  W e have a variety of self finishing items (see below pictures) in stock, including jewelery boxes, storage boxes, trays, luggage tags, key fobs, book marks, c oin purses and eyeglass cases, etc.

It's not too early to start thinking about next Christmas. As we say, "Christmas comes every year." Start working now on that stocking or Twelve Days of Christmas ornaments!

We are continuing our Workshops during December.   
Please come stitch with us. It's a great way to relax and unwind from the holiday stress!   See the convenient workshop  schedule i n the  Upcoming Classes, Lessons and Work shops  section. We will be announicing the 2017 Class schedule next month ...stay tuned! 

We will be closed on Thanksgiving Day, but will resume our usual schedule on Black Friday, November 25th (10 am to 5 pm) and Small Business Saturday, November 26th (10 am to 4 pm).
