Time to Be Creative: Head to Jeannette’s to Start doing Needlework
The one-on-one attention and and happy helping with your project has been the #1 reason people keep coming back to Jeannette’s Needlecraft for years and years.
If you want to start on a needlework project, here you can buy yarn and canvases. Right now “The Woman in Gold” based on the painting by Gustav Klimt (and the movie by the same name) modeled by Adele-Bloch Bauer is the hot seller.
Why not start a scarf for the cold weather coming up? Or a gift for holidays? They carry scarf yarns (Pirouette, Bohemian and Decor by Patons), to make the latest fashion accessory item as well as other low cost items that will tempt you to start those winter projects..
They can also upholster with your completed needlepoint (especially chairs), finish cushions and mount tapestries.
Once you have your finished projects (be they needle work or art work) that you worked on for so long, come back here to to get them framed or finished. Perhaps plans some as gifts for Christmas or Chanukah. A gift done by hand is one that shows that you truly care. Your effort is displayed in each hand sewn stitch or stroke of your paint brush.
A quick handiwork idea: Try a “stitch n’ zip” kit; These are ready to use eye glass cases, iPad cases, Kindle cases and tallis bags. These are inexpensive gift items that you can have done by Christmas and Chanukah. The kits come pre-assembled. All you have to do is the needlepoint and then just zip it up and give it as a gift. You can have a tallis bag personalized with an embroidered Hebrew name too.
