Lazy Days of Summer

The dog days of summer are considered those hot, sultry days between late July and early September.  While we’re in the midst of those hot days, it’s always a pleasure retreating into the air conditioner and stitching away for most of the day and the evening. 

With summer winding down, Betty and Madalena are going to be taking a break.  Stitch By Stitch will be closing at 4 p.m. on Friday, August 22^nd through Labor Day.  We will reopen again on Wednesday, September 3^rd at 10 a.m.

Why not use this week to clean-up and prioritize your needlepoint projects.  Go through your stash to make sure that you have all the supplies you may need for the next couple of weeks. Stop by the store and check out our sale and kit a new project!  We also have a great series of classes planned over the next few months – check out the canvases and sign up. Take advantage of the longer days and slower pace of summer living to complete projects before the holiday finishing deadline of Friday, September 5^th for Hanukkah and Christmas and Friday, November 14^th for tallis bags and holiday stockings.

We hope you all take pleasure in the unofficial last days of summer and have a safe and enjoyable holiday weekend, and we look forward to serving you again soon.

Keep on stitchin’!
