So, a dream has been realized….my own little stitching shop!!!!! A home decor store in town wanted to expand…but only if she could get a bigger space on Main Street. A 2600 +square foot building came available….well, she didn’t need THAT much space!! So her idea was to sublet to other businesses….and I was the first to sign on!! Simply Stitches & Curiosities was born!! Hubby built the walls…I found antique doors on kijiji, and old window on FB marketplace. The antiques are my Dads (of course!!) and they are housed in the vault!!! This old building has had many lives and one was a bank. The inside has been changed around a few times and more things have been added….always evolving! I love coming to this Happy Place Wednesday - Sunday!! There are FIVE businesses in here and all of the women business owners are amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now to get everyone hooked on wool applique!! That’s the focus of this shop….lots of handwork…mixed with piecing. But I’m not a quilt shop per se.
