A Wild and Crazy Weekend in Branson!!






















We are having our Spring Stitching Retreat this weekend............got some pictures to share .......the theme of our weekend is CSI Branson (Cecilia's Stitching in Branson). Holly has a wonderfully fun adventure planned for the ladies..............they have a mascot named "Suzie", she is a stitcher that gets herself into mischief during the weekend. The Branson Police Department graciously posed with our ladies as they investigated Suzie's misfortune!! The ladies also solved some crime mysteries, had lots of stitching time, good food and fun,fun,fun !!! Hope you are all having a good weekend!!

NEW - Mystery Sampler!!!



This is just a quick post about a new and exciting Mystery Sampler that we are taking now pre orders for. It is called Birds of a Feather by Brenda Gervais of Country Stitches/With Thy Needle and Thread. It will be exciting as it is a 3 part mystery sampler!! Part 1 will be in the shop approximately May 10th - followed by part 2 in June and part3 in July. You will have your choice of 30, 35 or 40 count Weeks Dye Works fabric to stitch your sampler. It is stitched in Weeks Dye works threads, also. I am including a little sneak peek of the sampler............that is all we have for now. Jessie has the ordering info and pricing on the website, call or email us if you'd like us to reserve a Mystery Sampler for you!
