Have you ever noticed the “Chicks Rule” pillow by Pine Mountain Designs just inside the door of Blueberry Hill Stitchery? If you’re a fan of needle art, then chances are you’ve paid a visit to this Akron, Ohio establishment quite a few times for their lovely inventory of needlework supplies. And if you love Pine Mountain products, you’ll definitely want to take the trip from your Canton, Ohio; Cleveland, Ohio; or Sugarcreek, Ohio home to their shop this month! It just so happens that during the month of May, Blueberry Hill Stitchery will be featuring a trunk show by Pine Mountain Designs. Most of Pine Mountain’s offerings are pre-finished kits in fun fabrics. You can even purchase the coordinating pillow insert to complete the finished piece! This needlework showcase will feature several construction designs, as well as many cross stitch patterns. So, if you’ve been meaning to pick up some new cross stitch products, or just want to join Blueberry Hill’s stitching group, now is the time to stop by their quaint shop.
Though Pine Mountain patterns will be available to purchase and order at the needlework showcase at Blueberry Hill Stitchery this month, this isn’t the only great event that this Akron establishment has coming up. Not by a long shot! Blueberry Hill Stitchery has a number of specials and activities planned for the coming months, and their staff couldn’t be more excited! The first week of June the shop will offer 15% off all Bent Creek patterns. Go through your stash, make your wish list, and visit the store for your most desired Lizzie Kate project. If they don’t have it in stock, they’ll order the cross stitch patterns you crave at the sale price!
What other exciting offerings will Blueberry Hill Stitchery have available for customers? Well, if you take the trip from your Canton, Sugarcreek, or Cleveland home to Blueberry Hill during the 3rd week of June, you can take advantage of Customer Appreciation Week! You will have the opportunity to fill your own grab bag with any $1.00 sale pattern, 2 store stash flosses (located in a specially-marked basket), and a Blueberry Hill mini ruler! What’s better than getting the needlework supplies and other cross stitch products you need for your next project at a discounted price?
The week of July 21-26 will see the return of Blueberry Hill’s own Customer Stitchery Showcase. As in years past, any customer may bring in pieces of needlework to show. The staff will record all pertinent information, number each piece, and display them for everyone to enjoy! As customers shop throughout the week, they may vote for their favorite piece. Those who come in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place will win great prizes! Blueberry Hill Stitchery’s staff loves this annual needlework showcase, as they believe it’s a wonderful opportunity for customers to showcase their talents and learn from one other.
Finally, the 2nd week of August will feature another Customer Appreciation Week. This one will allow you to score some big savings on all of your favorite cross stitch patterns and needlework supplies! For each purchase made, Blueberry Hill’s staff will mark your customer appreciation card double. So for a $30 sale, they’ll mark your card as if a $60 sale was made! As August is the height of summer, everyone will be scrambling to get in that last vacation before the cooler temperatures set in and school is back in session. Now is the perfect time to stop by Blueberry Hill so you can grab a quick project for the trip. Those long airport waits and tranquil seaside loungings are ideal for completing small projects.
As you probably already know, stitchers meet at Blueberry Hill each month in order to stitch together, enjoy each others’ company, see what fellow stitchers are working on, and gain new ideas for projects. This stitching group meets the 2nd Wednesday of each month at 6:30pm at the shop. So, why not join them for great fellowship and a little evening shopping? The staff at this local shop would like to begin a daytime stitching group to allow daytime connections. A signup sheet is posted at the shop to determine interest and the most requested day of the week to meet from noon-2pm.
If you have all kinds of fun projects in mind this summer, now is an excellent time to take the trip from your Canton, Ohio; Cleveland, Ohio; or Sugarcreek, Ohio home to Blueberry Hill Stitchery. With stitching group meetings, needlework showcases, deals on cross stitch patterns, and more, there are a number of upcoming events you won’t want to miss! To get a glimpse at some of the Pine Mountain patterns and other cross stitch products Blueberry Hill has available, visit their website at www.blueberryhillstitchery.com. However, if you’d like to see their large selection of needlework supplies in person, head to their shop this summer. And don’t forget to sign up for Blueberry Hill’s email list along with their mailing list so you can be informed of fantastic sales and store closings due to poor weather. Marlys, Katie, Tracie, and Dana can’t wait to see everyone at the shop this summer!
