The rerelease of Alexia Marcelle Abegg's Starry with new colours and a play with scale has been anxiously awaited by many. It got delayed in the US due to dock issues, but we were lucky to bypass that in Canada.
We have yardage and bundles of this pretty group.
We have new 60 cm bag handles from Japan in a linen/poly blend, now in 12 colours. They come as a pair and will finish your bag making perfectly, especially in time for the holidays.
We also restocked all of our smaller acrylic bag handles in a huge range of colours.
Wide wale cord is soft and lux and feels like velvet but isn't nearly as fussy.
Our cord is 98% cotton and 2% spandex, so it's comfortable and flattering. You'll see we have some pretty fantastic colours too.
What are you thinking of making?
Kim Kight's new collection, Sugar Cone, arrived today in the middle of wet snow and a dull grey sky. It felt like just the tonic we needed to boost our spirits and start thinking about fun sewing projects.
A sweet group if there ever was one (har har)
We have restocked and added some fun new Hook Line and Tinker kits.
These make terrific Christmas presents. They come with everything including the needle and the hoop and most are beginner friendly with well written instructions.
Pick out a cheeky kit from this excellent Nova Scotia small business.
This pretty collection has lots of vintage charm, especially if you were around in the '70's (which a few of us were). The little flowers, sweet dots and pretty palette if going to spark all kinds of new mod sewing.
Note, the pink cheater print is almost gone but we're trying to source more and will add a pre-order listing as soon as we know it's coming.
Yes, we will have Black Friday deals but we have a lot more planned.
We're hoping you'll sign up to join us to make a felt holiday ornament and raise money for Michael Garron Hospital Foundation. Choose between an 11:00 or 1:30 start for 90 minutes of stitching and cheer. Shirley Dawson will be there to share embroidery techniques and give you more ideas.
We will supply everything and 100% of the fee will be donated.
ALSO - Get your scissors sharpened! Our favourite sharpener will be here with his equipment from 11:00AM - 1:00PM. When you spend $20.00 to get your scissors sharpened and they will donate $2.00 to Michael Garren Hospital. They also do kitchen knives. When you spend $12.00 on a knife, they will donate $2.00.
