Melita Goes to Cape Cod

Melita's on the road again, this time on a trip to Cape Cod in Massachusetts.  She managed a brief visit to Osterville Needlepoint in Mashpea (not Osterville, but close).  Look at all those threads!

Thanks for the write up, Melita.  Us stay-at-home types love seeing the shops all around the country—and world.

Breaking News: Christine's Osterville Needlepoint Has Been Sold

Posted on Facebook today:

Dear Fellow Needlepointers,

With mixed emotions, after 29 + years, I have sold my retail store to Joyce Gresh, one of our customers. I have so enjoyed meeting and working with you all through the years. My love of needlepoint continues to this day. It has been a true pleasure starting the store in 1986 and watching it grow - adding new fibers and designers over the years and moving to our current location.

Joyce will be using our original name "Osterville Needlepoint Shop" so continue to visit when you are on the Cape. Vicki and Barbara are still there to assist you.

I am going to devote more time to my husband, needlepointing, and my wholesale business "CBK Needlepoint Collections". The wholesale operation has moved from the loft area to the lower level so feel free to visit (follow the blue handrail in the back of the building).

Thank you for all of your years of support and I wish you all the best.
Christine Kesten
