I was stunned when I got my mail today and I had an invitation from Nordic
Needle for a closing sale. They sent out invitations to loyal patron for a
week of shopping before notifying the general public about their closing
They will be closing their doors forever after 42 years. What a loss. We
have the general craft stores like Michaels, Hobby Lobby and JoAnne's but
Nordic Needle was our only actual needlework store for quite a area around
us. I don't know if there are any others closer than the Minneapolis area.
I guess the young people of today just don't stitch or do needlework. How
sad is that. I will sure miss them.

Wow! I am amazed and dismayed
I think the problem is young
people today don't do things we would ever have considered 'a craft' -
I expect they will be back but they will never know the lust and
pleasure of entering a needlework shop.
