I just heard on Facebook that the Stitching Post in Midland, Texas is closing December 22, 2017.

I also heard there about a fairly new shop just outside of Red Bank, New Jersey, called Threads Too.

UPDATE: AND I am told there is a new shop in the Chicago area--Stitchers Garden is located at 1163 E. Ogden Avenue, Suite 713, Naperville, IL, which is just 30 miles west of downtown Chicago.  Their website and Facebook pages are listed in the links below.  Deb the owner says their hours are Tuesday through Saturday from 10-5 p.m.

My best wishes to the closing shop's owner and to the new shop owner.  Everyone is allowed to retire but we are lucky when someone new takes on the hassles of running a small business catering to needlepoint needs!

Acknowledging Our Growth Through Finishing

Suzie at Enriched Stitch just had an early Christmas design she stitched finished as a way of both having a fun ornament and remembering where she started from.  She makes a great point.
