September Winner & October Contest

October 1, 2009

The winner of September’s contest is Patt who wrote about her favorite shop:

There are a lot of great shops in our Bay Area, but my favorite is Madonna Needleworks in Morgan Hill, CA. When you enter the door, Jack is there to great you with his tail wagging. Teri, the owner, always says hi with your name — it seems she knows and remembers everybody. There is a very long table where you will almost always see people stitching on their various projects. If you want help on picking out a stitch, Teri, the owner is always there to help — she does it for free. Best of all, though, is the fantastic selection of threads — more than most stores.

No theme for October’s contest, jut leave a comment. one winner from the US will win a selection of threads.

    Not sure what you mean by “just leave a comment” but if that is what you want, your wish is my command.

    Nice story about the store – I guess the dog doesn’t get into the yarn!

    I’ve been meaning to check out Madonna Needleworks. Since moving to the bay area 2 months ago, I’ve discovered that there are a lot of stores out here…and I love it!
