These come in a wide variety of colors for shading, detailing and textures. The design is worked on 14 or 20 count fabric or Hucks cloth.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I had the designer Alma Lynn sign a graph of one of her designs for my daughter,&#8221; Pat said. &#8220;I have several Alma Lynn&#8217;s folksy designs in my shop for people to use.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll be able to choose such projects as Wall hangings, a tea cozy, pillows, banners and whatever your imagination comes up with.<\/p>\n<p>Pat has worked 30 years in retailing and for Sears in their Credit Adjustment Department<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I know the customer comes first,&#8221; Pat stated emphatically. I&#8217;ll be offering everything a person needs to create, start, implement and finish a project.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Pat will be offering classes, but said she&#8217;d be willing to stitch an item to your specifications if you really can&#8217;t do it yourself.<\/p>\n<p>(Keep in mind, Dear Readers, that I am going to do one, so what is YOUR excuse for not trying to do one?)<\/p>\n<p>Pat will be offering flexible class times for adults, so they can come in the evening or during the day, depending on their schedule. Sign-ups and requests may be made at the shop or by phone.<\/p>\n<p>The cost for a three-week adult class is tentatively, $7.50 plus $10 for a kit.<\/p>\n<p>Classes for children 8-years and up will be scheduled for Sunday afternoon, tentatively, from 1 &#8211; 2 P.M. The cost of the children&#8217;s three week class is, tentatively, $6.00 plus $5 for the kit.<\/p>\n<p>Pat had a co-worker at Sears who said: You have to meet my brother!<\/p>\n<p>Obviously, Bob&#8217;s sister was an excellent match-maker!<\/p>\n<p>Pat and Bob were married and have lived in Marion for more than 28 years. As their two daughters, Michelle (Stonehem) and Kimberly were growing up in Marion, Pat was a Girl Scout leader, Band Mom and involved in numerous other community activities.<\/p>\n<p>The Cross Stitch Corner&#8217;s grand opening is January 23 &#8211; 26, 1997.Thursday and Friday, January 23-24: 11 Am &#8211; 8 PM Saturday, January 25: 10 AM &#8211; 5 PM; Sunday, January 26: Noon &#8211; 4 PM<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;During the Cross Stitch Corner grand opening,&#8221; Pat said,&#8221; I&#8217;ll be offering a 10% discount.
