Passion with a Purpose...

Use Your Crafting Skills

to Help Others

One of the primary motives of opening our business was to offer a safe place for all people to gather and support crafters. As we have grown over the years we have been in awe of some of the amazing ways the stitching community reaches out to those suffering or less fortunate. To help you find places to share we have added to our website a Charitable Works page. You can click on the picture above to be directed to our new page.

On this page you will find patterns, links and ideas of ways you can serve others while using your passion for crafts. As we enter this holiday season, please consider how you might be the one person who can make a difference in the life of someone facing a crisis.

This year, more than ever, we need to show love and compassion to each other. Thanks for all you already do, and for the joy you bring in the midst of strife by participating in these programs.

Each kit includes fabric for top, backing, binding and pattern in a cute keepsake box.

Help us Decorate our Mitten Tree!

Once again this year we will be collecting mittens and gloves for local charities. These can be knitted, crocheted, sewn or newly purchased in all sizes. You can drop them at the front register or bring them to our yarn department to hang on our Mitten Tree.

Each year we enjoy seeing this tree fill up with so many cute mittens. We deliver them in time for Christmas and the winter weather that usually follows. Thanks for your help with this important ministry.
