Hello Friends of Stitches...

The Holiday Open House which was also my Grand Opening was a great success even though the weather has turned and snow, sleet, and rain were a part of our weekend, too. Oh, well, that will get us in the mood for Christmas and motivate us to get some Christmas gift projects going. If you are sick of giving those plastic gifts from China come into the shop and look around at all the hand made, special projects that can thrill your family and friends. They're fun to make, inexpensive and much more meaningful.

New activities at the shop include:
Thursday night open sewing downstairs in our sewing room.
Thursday night knitting around the fireplace (beginners or bring your projects & knit)
No need to register, just come and enjoy!
Refreshments available.
Saturday, November 15th 10am Christmas Tree Skirt Class (must sign up ahead of time)
Saturday November 22nd 10am Christmas Placemats & Tablerunner (sign up ahead of time)
Saturday November 22nd 1pm Beginning Quilting (sign up ahead of time)
Saturday November 29th 10am Bow Tie Purse (sign up ahead of time)
(If you cannot come into the shop to sign up you may email @ charlescitystitches@gmail.com
or call me on the phone 641-228-3383
Hope you will enjoy the season. Making hand made gifts makes it so much more meaningful.
