Use coupon code “WINTER13” to 30% off your entire purchase!!

Due to returning to college, I am focus enough attention on the shop. I will be putting Whimsical Stitches into vacation mode until summer, or possibly the Fall. I plan to use this time to refocus my efforts on producing a bunch of ready to ship popular items - think convertible and fingerless mittens especially. I would like to sell off some of my in stock items prior to putting the shop on extended vacation and that is why I am offering you 30% off your entire purchase. I will be placing my store in vacation mode within the next two weeks so please hurry. And I am sorry, but I will not be able to accommodate any custom orders at this time.

Thank you so much for your support and I look forward to returning soon!

Fall is here

Sun, 30 Sep 2012 23:16:46 -0400

I’ve been a bit on a hiatus from things shop related. Summer always brings me to a place where I lose a bit of interest with yarn crafting. The beauty of it is that every late summer/early fall I get to fall back in love with it all over again. Currently I’m smitten with my crochet hooks.

I’ve decided that it’s time to get things fired back up and rolling with Whimsical Stitches once again. I thought that perhaps this time I’d try a new approach to things, because new is fun, right?! At least until orders catch up to me and don’t allow me the time to continue with it, I plan to work throughout the week (or two, I haven’t completely decided) and then list a bunch of fun ready to ship items.

So with that in mind, I’ve been very busy. Starting tomorrow afternoon I will begin to list these fun ready to ship goodies. And just as a little teaser, here’s a quick sneak peek of my goody box after I was done attaching buttons to everything…

So yes. Lots of goodies coming your way. I hope you are excited, because I am thrilled to be back at this thing again. Welcome Fall!

One of the latest wreaths to go up in my shop. This is (so far) my favorite of all my wreaths. As soon as things slow down for me I plan on making one very similar to this for myself. I hope you like it too. You can find the listing for it here - http://www.etsy.com/listing/97600828/16-yarn-wreath-aqua-floral-with-barn-owl

The Parliament Handbag has been given a bright, funky, fresh boost with an Alexander Henry Bolero fabric lining. This lining will keep the bag from stretching or sagging with use while adding some fun to an otherwise subtle design.

It’s not something for my shop, but I still want to share. Yesterday I crocheted a uterus for a congressman in need. Check out the link HERE to find out more. If you knit or crochet there are patterns listed for both crafts. Get in on the action and ask your male government representatives if they have a uterus of their own, would they please stay out of ours.

Have I mentioned lately how happy playing photographer with colorful coffee cozies makes me?

I thought my coffee cozy selection was looking a bit bland so I’ve colored it up a bit. All the colors that you see will be stocked over the next few days. You can find them here.
