Acorn & Threads, a needlework store in Portland, OR, hosted an online event yesterday. Close to 200 stitchers from 33 states and two provinces “zoomed” in for the event. We heard about the history of the shop, got to meet the shop’s staff, we met Frony Ritter, the designer of the pattern that was gifted to all of us, and we met a few other needlework celebrities on the call. Acorn & Threads is celebrating their 25th anniversary this year!
Once COVID is behind us, I hope to one day visit Acorn & Threads. They are my people!
What fun! I imagine the pictures of over 200 stitchers were pretty small!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a cute project.
