Busy Needle's Brick and Mortar Shop Closing

Patt alerted folks on Facebook to the fact that the Busy Needle in Tucson, Arizona is closing its shop the end of this month (July).  I knew the shop had been for sale but apparently none of the potential buyers worked out.  The shop is starting a 30% off sale tomorrow (July 16) that will run until the end of the month.  Only in stock items are on sale, so check the website for that canvas, book or tool you've been wanting.

This breaks my heart but at least the shop will live on in cyberspace as an online only shop.

Visiting Maggie

Recently Old World Designs did another of their field trips, this time to visit Maggie Designs.  Here's a full report by one of the lucky folks who went on the tour.  There are links to both the Maggie website and to Old World Designs' online shop at the end of the article in case you want to explore further.
