Shorttakes

It's that time of year again!  We just finished doing inventory & we have a basketful of things that have served us well, but need to go.  So Tracy & I have gone thru the shop & pulled models in need of a new home, as well as charts that need to go so we can make room for new goodies.  Believe it or not, the Nashville Market is coming up in just about 6 weeks! 

So if you come by the shop, don't forget to step into our "gallery" ~ aka, the restroom, where all our models for sale are hanging ~ and also check out out sale bin....there are lots of half price goodies just waiting to entice your stitching fingers!

If you are too far away, don't you worry!  I'm also posting them on the website.  So to see the models for sale, click here: Models.  And for lots of clearance goodies, click here: Clearance.  Make sure to revisit those 2 categories over the next week or so as we are planning to add more things to both.

 

That's right!  After 4 long years (post-COVID, post-moving, post losing Lise), we're finally back to one of our favorite sales! 

Beginning Saturday January 13th & going thru Saturday January 20th, bring in your framing, pick your perfect frame to finish your stitching, and if you pay the whole balance (not just a deposit) you will get 20% off the entire price.  This only happens twice a year ~ the rest of the time you can get 20% off your frames, mats & glass if you have Frequent Stitcher's Points, but this is the only time you get that discount on the mounting fee.

The main reason I REALLY wanted to get back to doing this is that the cost of frames has skyrocketed since just before Covid.  And ever since Covid we were so overwhelmed with all the things y'all finished, and then we moved the shop, then Lise got sick....and we just couldn't ask you to wait EVEN LONGER than it was already taking.  So thanks to all y'all cooperating with our early Christmas cutoff, I could clear the decks & have a completely fresh start.  And the best part of that is, we can do a framing sale again!

The one favor we ask is that you limit yourself to 5 pieces (and I know for SOME of y'all that will be a hardship...while others ~ like me ~ will be scrambling to finish SOMETHING in time!).  I simply don't wanna get inundated & put us all back at 12-15 weeks getting things done ~ ugh! 

Someone asked about the days we are open. So here's the deal during "Framing Sale Week".  Come by any day...even though we're closed Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday, just come on by whenever is convenient for you.  We'll be here!  Knock on the door & we'll be happy to welcome you in, any time between 10 & 3.  Obviously on Thursday & Friday we're here until 5 now.  And Saturdays will also be 10 - 3.  So make your plans accordingly and join us to get your framing done!

 

We've had a few folks asking if we're going to have our annual Super Bowl Sale and the answer is OF COURSE!  Now, I will say, we're not quite as stoked about Super Bowl Sunday as we were at the beginning of football season, as the Eagles seem to have imploded in the last month.  And not that I wanted that to happen, but I gotta tell ya, Philly truly is a unique sports town!  Before the season started, the biggest complaint (seriously) was that there was nothing to complain about.  Everyone thought this team was gonna just stroll right thru without even smudging their manicures!  No joke ~ the sports radio station was continually bemoaning the fact that this team had no weaknesses!  And that, my friends, is why they play the game.

But back to our Super Bowl Sale.  We will be here at the shop from 11AM to 2PM.  Everything ~ either in stock or available to order ~ will be 20% off.  If the Eagles DO manage to survive & make the Super Bowl, that discount will change, so be sure to check in from time to time.

If you live far away, don't worry!  You can still participate!  Just place your order online & you will also receive 20% off.  Keep in mind that our shopping cart isn't nimble enough to figure out discounts, so don't panic when it doesn't show up on your order submission.  When we process your order, we will apply the discount before we charge your card.

 

I'm gonna wrap this yipyap up & send it.  I'm working on a "new stuff" newsletter, but wanted to get all this "info" into your hands.  Also, I managed to get a wicked cough/cold (not covid) from Jimmy & I feel like crap so I need to wind it up & get it on its way so I can head out & crawl in bed.  Ugh!!

 

Hugs & stitches ~

Beth & all the masked ones at TSS
