About December Stitches
Even though our shop, December Stitches, is fairly new, the dream of opening it had been with us for many years.
Looking back to the beginning, Simone learned cross-stitching as a child. Melissa, her younger sister, became interested after seeing Simone's work and asked her sister to teach her how to cross-stitch.
Both sisters were always crafting, drawing, creating Art, which in fact was their favorite past time activity. They grew up seeing their father draw, their mother paint & try different mediums of crafts, and their grandmothers knitting and doing crochet. They were free to be creative and their art was always appreciated.
Simone & Mel always wanted to work together, and dreamed of having a shop where they could share their common passion for design, cross stitch and... their pets!
😉
The pandemic surprised us all, but it also highlighted the fact that despite living in different cities, technology could enable us to meet virtually and therefore work together.
In January 2023, they found the courage to embark on this venture, officially opening their "doors" in April 2023.
So here we are, this is our 'family' cross-stitch design shop. We believe it’s going to be a slow climb, but we sincerely invite you to join us on this journey. Please support us by checking out our shop, following us on Instagram and considering doing business with us.
You can be sure that we have many exciting things in store for you. Our goal is to provide excellent service, establish a foundation of trust, and ultimately nurture a lasting “stitchy-friendship” with you!
