Summer/Christmas Stitching

Happy summer!  We have new Christmas projects for you!!   How divergent is that?! The Winter Holiday Mill Hill kits are here!  I know some of you wait for them every year so you can start your Christmas projects. This year’s ornaments include a menorah and dreidels.  The 2018 Prairie Schooler Santa is here and he’s building a snowman while a bunny watches.  If you like to stitch with the current season, Abby Rose has Long May She Wave-In God We Trust and Hands on Designs brings us Knee High. Pickle Barrel has a whole series of summery designs. Over one stitchers need to see the latest arrivals from Heart’s Content. All the new designs can be seen at https://www.houseofstitches.com/whatsnew.cfm.

Our Fall Weekend of Stitches will be October 5-7, 2018.  The information will be on our website later this afternoon. Just click on the Events button.  Pam Reed from Olde Colonial will be teaching us her Needfuls of Mine Walnut Sewing Box project.  The box lid, pincushion and scissor fob are all stitched in Pam’s beautiful color selections.  This is a project that you will be proud to have holding your "needful" supplies on the table beside your favorite stitching chair. Space is limited so sign up early.  I hope you can join us!

Strawberry Sale!

It’s June!  In Indiana that means it is strawberry time.  To celebrate, we are having a 25% off sale on all of the Erica Michaels strawberries that we have in stock!  (We will take the discount off your order when we process it.) They are so much fun to make!  They are like potato chips; you can’t have just one!

More projects are waiting for you at https://www.houseofstitches.com/whatsnew.cfm . Things are gearing up for fall and holiday stitching! Just a few weeks ago we received the Autumn kits from Mill Hill and this week we received the holiday kits!  They arrived too late for this update but you can see them at www.wichelt.com. Just click on new products (on the left side) and then kits.  We will have the photos on our next update.  Another late arrival is the 2018 Prairie Schooler Santa.  If you would like any of these items just put a note in the customer comments area of your order form.

If you are feeling like stitching something patriotic, take a look at Festive Little Fobs-Americana Edition and Stars and Stripes Forever Stocking, both from Heartstring Samplery.  Another new patriotic design is Every Heart from Country Cottage Needlework.  The Fourth of July is fast approaching so your stitching bag needs to have something red, white and blue to stitch!

Mark your calendars for the first weekend in October!  Pam Reed from Olde Colonial Designs is coming to teach her new class project called Needfuls of Mine.  I am still working out the cost and will get you that information soon along with a picture of the project!  For now, just mark October 5-7 on your calendar for a weekend of stitching fun!  More soon!
