Big news: Strokes -n- Stitches is officially in full production mode!

A little explanation... A while back, an idea came about that my mom, grandmother, and I should have a booth together at a craft show. I mean, we're crafty people, right? Could make a little cash. Could be a lot of work. But could be really fun.

Back in May I started looking around for a fall show and found one through a friend of mine. It was a juried show and entries were due by the end of June, so we had to get it together quickly, but we decided to give it a shot just to see what would happen. And low and behold, Monday morning my inbox boasted a response from the 'head show people' saying we were selected!

So mark your calendars for this generational debut at Market in the Meadow, October 10-11, here in Dallas.

Here's part of what we submitted along with our entry, as well as a few shots of potential product. Time to get painting!

Strokes -n- Stitches comprises three generations of family-oriented craftiness, hailing from the Texas Panhandle. Our master stitcher, Margarett, has been painting, sewing, and quilting for many years. Putting love and energy into every project, she enjoys working out of her local sewing shop along with several of her stitching friends. Terri’s expertise encompasses a wide variety, specializing in hand-painted lettering and small gifts. Most of her projects are born out of a love for sharing with and teaching others to appreciate the little things in life. While she can’t sew a stitch, Gretchen works as a Graphic Designer here in the Dallas area. She dabbles in illustration and painting, as well as exploring new possibilities in the art realm. Combining our efforts and crafty talent, we offer a wide range of product, from ‘strokes’ of handpainted signs, custom-made lettering, and illustrated cards, to a wide variety of ‘stitches’ ranging from quilts, table runners, and aprons to seasonal gift items.
