Keepsake Needlearts
Does anybody know if Keepsake Needlearts in Center Harbor N.H. is still
around? I just uncovered an old catalogue of theirs (2005) and fell in love with their kits all over again. However, when I'm clicking on their links on their web page, I keep getting 'bad request'. I hope they're not gone too! Maureen In Vancouver, B.C. |

They have an ad in the current JCS. I tried going there and had no problem. Perhaps they had a computer glitch when you tried. Nancy |

I needed Q-snaps ( left mine at home). The lady I finally cornered had never heard of them. Actually, I found them in a small display by the check-out counter in the Quilt area. There is always a porch sale of their kits...........so I feel it my responsibility to keep them in business. LOL HOWEVER, they basically sell kits. Also the "doorway" seperating the Quilt shop (awesome, even though I don't quilt) has been replaced by an"arch". It is all part of the same shop, and you pay for it all in the fabric side. The yarn shop is great fun..........I helped them too. Scrapbooking left me cold, so they can scrounge for scraps. The addy is http://www.keepsakeneedlearts.com/ Gillian back in chilly Florida ( well it is if you are in shorts and sandals! |

I found some lovely yarn at their sister store Patternworks to make a baby shrug for Eva. I went into Keepsake Needlearts, but the signage is replace with a Clearance sign. I did find a couple of things(more yarn) there though and had to check out at Keepsake Quilting. The woman there said that the catalog sales will continue, but all clearance from all three shops and past catalogs would now be consigned to that shop area. There were PLENTY of kits to be had and the prices are really good. I have since ordered from the catalog with no problems and will continue to do so, but I thought you should know. I was going to post this earlier, but life got in the way. TYSK Bobbie V. |

Although I prefer to work from just charts, I'll take anything I can get these days since the sources for needlework of any kind seem to be as scarce as hens teeth in my neck of the woods. Maureen |

Lucille I wonder if there are so few stitcherts around then, or if the big box stores (Michael's etc) have killed the small LNS in most towns. If I thought that, I'd be tempted to start a small mail-order business myself just to keep the supplies out there and the needle arts alive. Maureen |

She was getting older and wanted to travel and do more fun things then owning the store allowed. She tried to sell it, and even to give it away to her daughter, but couldn't get anyone interested.

Lucille Maureen and Lucille, I would be more than happy to fill out any lists you have from my LNS, and mail them to you. She is in the same town..............takes about 25 mins to drive there, but it always lands up as a friendly visit for an hour or so! I was in yesterday, and picked up a small piece she had framed for me, two gorgeous plush fingertip towels, which I hadn't seen before, and replacement clips for my Q-snaps.........and came out with change from $30.

If the Michael's is like ours, there wouldn't be much competition! They have the same Leisure Arts kits that they've had for, seriously, *years*, which are the same LA kits that Joann's has (and Wally World had, until they eliminated stitchy stuff from their crafts section). No wonder no one cross stitches anymore...it's always the same old stuff. That's why I love to go to Fargo to NN! Joan |
