Stitching on the 4th of July

One of my favorite holidays is the 4th of July.  It's summer, it's colorful, and it celebrates our freedoms in the USA.  And I'm a big fireworks fan, too (the ones at the park, not in my neighborhood).  It's also a good time to stitch, so get out those projects, relax out on the deck or backyard with a big glass of iced tea and cross those X's to your heart's content.  Lots of great patriotic patterns are available and your customers will enjoy stitching them all summer long. Happy Stitching!  Beth

New Number Tab for the Large Floss Key

Yarn Tree has redesigned the Large Plastic Floss Key to include a tab that will hold the floss number band off your skein of DMC or Anchor floss.  Or if you are organizing another type of thread, you may use a sticker and write your number on the sticker which is included in the pack.  Large Floss Keys (or holders) are packaged in 50's, 100's, or a bulk package of 1000.  Keep on Stitching!  Beth 

A Perfect Time to Cross Stitch

This is the perfect season to cross stitch (I will say that about any season!).  But if you don't know how, our Learn to Cross Stitch in 5 Minutes video  is a good way to start.  Another great way is to contact your local needlework store and ask them to teach you.  It doesn't take long to learn to cross stitch and the results will turn out well, even for a beginner.  Yes, anyone can learn to cross stitch!  Better yet, counted cross stitch relieves stress and you end up with wonderful gifts or decor for your home.  Happy Stitching!  Beth

A Gift of Cross Stitch is Truly a Gift From the Heart

Thank you to the retail needlework stores for their support. We've had a great year and hope that you have as well.  Thank you also to the cross stitchers who support their LNS!  We will celebrate the holidays with our families from Dec 24th until Jan 4th, reopening to serve you January 5th.  Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!  Keep on Stitching!!  Beth
