Had a great day at the Hamilton Cat Show. So many cute cats under one roof - was the perfect way to spend the afternoon with my mom and sister.

Also Riley loves his new toy 😊

Hi! Yes I’m still here. I know I’ve been quiet the last couple months but between work and getting ready for Stitch North I haven’t had much time for anything.

I have just completed the last shop update before Stitch North - it's all Tula including a small amount of her newest line Graywork 😍. The shop will be going on vacation around April 12th to finish the final prep work.

If you are coming to Stitch North, I will be attending weekend 1 and vending weekend 2 so if you want to pick up your order wither weekend, please use the code LOCALSHIP to remove shipping charges. Just remember to leave me a note letting me know what weekend you will be there.

As the last day of 2025 winds down I would like to think about a few of the good things that have happened this year.

Took a fun trip to Costa Rica with my mom and sister.

Got to meet up with so many stitchy friends.

The stitching community in general - everyone is so amazing.

My pets - love them all so much and they always make me smile.

Got to watch Jurassic Park with a live orchestra - it was so cool.

And last but not least I was still able to keep my business going after all the hurdles that were thrown out there. I can’t thank everyone enough for their support for my first ever theme box (there are still some available if you haven’t gotten yours yet). Also there end of year sale is still on until 1pm Jan 4th with 2 chances to win $25 towards a purchase - please see previous post for details.

I hope everyone has a safe and fun night. Happy new year!! 🥳 🥂

Spoiler Alert - as the majority of preorder packages have arrived at their final destination I thought I would go ahead and do a full reveal of the mystery Shiba Extravaganza.

I am over the moon with how this project turned out - it was definitely a labour of love and I couldn’t have done it without the help of some amazing Canadian Small Businesses. Everyone out did themselves and I hope you will help me give them all a big round of applause and show them some love.
