John from our favorite comic book shop (namely Carol & John’s, in the Kamm’s Corners plaza) just stopped by with some fab plushforms for us to customize. Why, you ask? The Midwest Plushform Show, co-sponsored by Carol & John’s and Shoparooni, which is raising money for Toys for Tots! We’ve got applications here at the shop, or drop by either of the above shops — but hurry!
Also, the vendors have been picked, the tables ordered, the helpers organized — get ready, Bazaar Bizarre 2008 is coming! Stitch Cleveland and 80 other indie vendors will help you find the perfect item for that special someone on your Nice List.
Finally — in response to popular demand, Shannon is offering more design your own sweater classes! Just in time for NaKniSweMo! Scared of sweaters? Don’t be. You’ll be designing your own in no time.

New fall classes are now forming, learn some new techniques and have fun doing it!! (Bring along a friend!) Samples for all classes are now in the store. See more details on the schedule. Remember, we also offer private lessons in sewing, patternmaking, felting, spinning, etc. For more info or to register for classes call us at 216-220-4808.
