Tuesday is Embroidery Day!

We have 2 embroidery classes Tuesday: 10:30am - 3pm & 6-9pm!  Do you have a red-work, black-work, or embroidery pattern you’ve been dying to try, but just don’t know where to begin? It'd be a GREAT Valentine's Day gift!  Drop in any time, and let Sammie guide you through the stitches while you chat and laugh!  It's $10/session, and you don't have to worry about a reservation!  Come on in!

Here are some ideas of what you could do!

Valentine's Day bag from The Mother Huddle (there's even a tutorial on how to make the bag after you've embroidered it!)
Handmade Valentine Pouch With Chocolates and Love Notes

You could embroider something on a scarf (this is actually needle felting, but you could embroider it!) via Design Sponge


Or if you don't want to do Valentine's Day stuff, you could make Felt Sand Dollars from Happy Together!
Basket from the beach

Or a pacifier clip from Ruffles & Stuff!


The possibilities are ENDLESS!  What are you waiting for...come in now!
