Want to pick up a needle & thread<br />
and create something beautiful?<br />
Stitches By the Sea has been<br />
guiding needlepoint enthusiasts since 2011.<br />
They call needlepoint “Yoga for the Mind”<br />
because the repetitive motion of stitching<br />
calms the mind. If you have worked on a<br />
piece, I’m sure you would agree. Stop in and<br />
visit the team, they will get you started and<br />
help you learn to stitch!<br />
