All Things Wise and Wonderful START-A-Long
Have you been wanting to stitch this beautiful chart from Beth Twist of Heartstrings Samplery but were feeling a bit intimidated by such a big piece? So were we! So we decided to do a Start-A-Long. You have a few weeks to get your supplies ready. We even have a beautiful silk conversion (available upon request). The fun starts August 28th! You can stitch along and post your progress on the Acorns & Friends Facebook page, or, if you are in town, join us in the shop on Friday August 28th for a SAL Kick-Off Party! Put your first stitches in and enjoy some yummy treats!


If you have been on social media lately, you have probably seen sneak peaks and reveals of new patterns from some of your favorite designers. We are adding new charts to our website daily, and Jeannine will be shopping this virtual marketplace August 21-24. You are welcome place pre-orders online or you may email the shop with your order. If you place multiple orders, we will hold them until all of your charts are ready. We don't actually collect your money until we are ready to ship so we will only charge you once for shipping. So feel free to go nuts and place multiple orders, even if it's in the middle of the night! Squirrel away those charts for fall stitching!
This cheeky stitcher is waiting (not so) patiently for new charts... If one is good, then more is better!
Visit our Clearance Corner
If you can't wait for your Marketplace order(s) to come, check out our sale charts! In order to make room for all of the new releases, we are continually adding to our Clearance Corner. You can find hundreds of charts that you may have missed when they were new, marked down from 50 to 75% off original prices.

If you see something you like or have a question, feel free to...
As always, we wish you happy stitching!
