Figured we could take in one more shop on this trip. We traveled north to House of Stitches in LaPorte, Indiana!
So glad we made the stop. Had a fun time visiting with the employees and spent about an hour digging through the many treasures in the shop. Unfortunately, this shop is looking for a buyer as the owner would like to retire. Hopefully they will find one because if this shop closes, it would be a huge loss. We consider it among the top needlework shops in the Midwest.
It was a long drive the rest of the way home. I was home by 8pm and my partner in crime arrived home at 9:30pm. Hard to believe the weekend is over. We had a great time.
Returning to reality today, but this weekend I’ll try to post some of the treasures I purchased along the way. Thanks for following along with us on our journey this weekend!

What an adventure you and your partner in stitching crime had! Glad you were able to take the detour to House of Stitches; have heard it is a fabulous shop! Enjoy your week.
It was great to meet you and Chris--enjoyed hearing of your exploits and LOVED seeing the lacework pieces up close and personal.
I'm so envious that you were able to visit so many wonderful shops!! I do look forward to seeing your treasures!
Love following you and your friend on your stash trip!

What a fun weekend you had and I'm looking forward to seeing all your purchases. I wish the owner luck on finding a buyer for the shop, I hate seeing needlework shops fall by the wayside.
LNS are such treasures--what is a girl to do without them?
Thx for sharing. As for your purchases, I'm looking forward to your posts!
Maybe your and your partner in crime could buy it and go into business together! Or maybe it is too far away from home? But wouldn't that be fun! Can't wait to see all they goodies you got!
