One of the charts on our updated What’s New Page (https://www.houseofstitches.com/whatsnew.cfm)
sums up our feelings about the weather.
It is from Artful Offerings and it says, “More Snow…Oh! No!” So far we have 105 inches for this winter and
this morning found us with 2 more inches.
The good thing is that it makes perfect weather for stitching! We have a nice selection of new projects and accessories
for your stitching pleasure. The 2018
Collector’s Heart is here as well as Lizzie Kate designs that celebrate
love. Those of you who are sheep
collectors will not want to miss our new sheep scissors. They are so cute that you might have to have
a pair in each color! If house pets are
more your thing be sure to see Beware of Dog (And Cat). The Nashville Needlework Market is fast
approaching! Glendon Place is offering a
Limited Edition kit that needs to be pre-ordered by January 31. We will bring your pre-ordered kits back from
Nashville on March 6.
I need to give you the unfortunate news that postage rates
have increased dramatically for small packages.
Maybe I listen to the wrong news reports but I have not heard anything
about the increase from the media.
Packages that cost $3.00 to mail last week are now $3.50! Stamps went up a penny and flat rate Priority
Mail packages went up a nickel. I wish
we could absorb the increase but it just is not in our budget. Perhaps the answer is more road trips! It is so much nicer to see things in person
and feel the fabrics and fibers!
