The Magic of Christmas - a Silver Needle Exclusive from Shakespeare's Peddler - click to see more Anticipation Season's Greetings - a Silver Needle Exclusive from Shakespeare's Peddler - click to see more

Shakespeare's Peddler's Newest Christmas Samplers are here!
Theresa was here at the shop in October for a few days of retreats... and here are our projects! The main Sampler - 'Seasons Greetings' was the class piece. THEN, each class brainstormed and learned Theresa's designing processes to come up with MORE pieces! So, 'Magic of Christmas' and 'Anticipation' are their results!
  • The Magic of Christmas - This piece is all about everything that comes to mind with Christmas. Stitched with Gentle Art, Weeks and Classic hand-dyeds, Theresa added Petite Treasure Braid in opalescent and vintage silver. Stitched on 36ct Fox & Rabbit Lyrebird Dell, it finishes about 12-1/2 inches square. The ladies wanted gingerbread people, and they wanted vintage-looking ornaments. Everybody loves the Shiny Brite retro glass ones, and they were the inspiration. They wanted the tarnished greens and pinks of the old ornaments, and they wanted snowflakes everywhere. And of course, the sleepy little village below! More fun options for smaller ornament-sized take out motifs... the trees and gingerbreads would make pretty drums. I just LOVE those little ornaments, too! There is an image of this piece on a neutral background color as well, to help you visualize fabric choices. Fabric cuts will be 1/6 yard - 40ct available as well as the neutrals.
  • Anticipation - The Anticipation of Christmas - Waiting for Santa! The verse reads, 'We can hardly stand the wait, please Christmas don't be late!' (I can hear The Chipmunks singing!) This piece measures 233 x 142 - so on the 36ct Broomgrass Linen by Needle Bling, it finishes 13 x 8. Stitched with Weeks, Gentle Art and Classic hand-dyeds, it is also charted for DMC. The ladies wanted a cool garland of teeny treats, and a fireplace that reminds of warmth and home - and of course the place for Santa! You've got some gifts on there and the little basket of something red... I bet you could even add more presents to that fireplace! The quilt hanging on the wall is fun... and you could take that garland from the top and make a pin drum! Fabric cut is 1/6 of a yard of 36ct Broomgrass Linen.
  • Seasons Greetings - The sentiment on this one is MEANT to celebrate all the greetings and 'fluff' of the entire season. Theresa stressed that to her Christmas is a 'whole season' of eating, parties, greetings, well wishes, church and special services, school pagents, shopping, the music, just everything! She isn't against Merry Chrismtas, but rather embracing everything there is about Christmastime. Stitched on 36ct Picture This Plus Wren, this finishes about 12-1/2 square, and uses a medley of Weeks, Gentle Art and Classic hand-dyeds, while being coded for DMC as well. Fabric cut is a 1/6 yard cut of 36ct

Stitcher's Ruler Tray
OHHH, check out these fun wooden trays that look like they are made from yard sticks. Measuring about 11 x 8 x 1, they are made from wood that looks like yardsticks that have fun 'stitchy' words scattered everywhere.

Use them as a display tray/frame for your needlework, or use them as a stitching organizer tray. They are quite heavy and sturdy, so will hold up for anything fun you want to do with them! Something unique and fun for a stitcher!


Wooden-Lucite Bead Organizer Trays, a Silver Needle Exclusive - click for more Rounded Flower Wooden-Lucite Bead Organizer Trays, a Silver Needle Exclusive - click for more
Wooden-Lucite Bead Organizer Trays
Check these out! 5-1/2 Inch Wooden Trays with small sections to keep your beads sorted. Our Square option features 16 sections, while our Pointy Flower version has 13 compartments.
The newest tray, a Round Flower tray, has 12 compartments, and still has the lucite lid... it just doesn't show well in this pic.

Each features a clear lucite magnetized cover that lifts off easily and then easily clings back on. You'll notice the covers in the pictures - so clear and streamlined - they mirror the shape of the tray, and feature a small 'tab' somewhere to help you grab to lift off. The magnets are strong, and you CAN slip these into your stitch tote safely (unbelieveable as that sounds!). Something fun from our Wooden Tray People!


Miniature Clip Boards for Stitchers, a Silver Needle Exclusive - click for more Stitcher Night Lights, a Silver Needle Exclusive - click for more Beautiful Things Tray, a Silver Needle Exclusive - click for more
Stitchers are always looking for fun and different trinkets and treasures to commemorate a shopping trip to Silver Needle, or some cool small gifts to take home and give to stitching friends. Check out all this fun stuff that's now BACK IN STOCK!
  • Miniature Clip Boards for Stitchers - The Spool boards measure only 5-1/2 x 7, and feature cute stitch-y decorations. Little Clip at the top - use it to hold a small finished piece of needlework! (Like a finished Mill Hill bead kit or smaller pin cushion design that is stitched, but not assembled.) There is a wooden 'stick' on the back so your board can even stand up as a display piece. The larger boards are 6 x 9. Varied woods for everything, decorative etchings on the fronts, SN's name and the stands are on the backs. Etchings are varied designs on the fronts... but our favorite is the 'To Stitch is Bliss' with all the tiny stitching motifs in the artwork. The little spool boards are $18.00, the larger run $26.
  • Stitcher Night Lights! The are the cutest! What a fun thing to whip out at your next late night stitching event... or something to make you smile when you tip-toe to your bathroom in the middle of the night. (Stitchers always have stitching on their minds) Regular little bulb, on/off switch, the little hoop part measures about 3 inches in diameter. There is a cute colorful design full of stitching stuff, and the wooden heart area covers the center of the bulb, so there is no bright glare of a bare bulb. Each as a verse about stitching, this one reads 'Eat, Stitch, Sleep, Repeat.' They run $21.00.
  • Beautiful Things Tray Something to keep your space organized, these little trays measure just 10 inches across, 5 inches high and are 1/2 an inch thick. They feature a lovely verse: 'Beautiful Things Come Together One Stitch at a time.' Slightly raised edges, so nothing can spill out of your area; I put a pair of 3-1/2 inch scissors there for scale. (They are sold separately from the tray.) Perfect for travel-stitchng, and holding a few threaders, trinkets and candy! Super fun and functional - $34.00.


Our Jeannette Douglas Kit just shipped. We have a few spaces available.

Presenting our Next Round of: *A Little Help From Our Friends Stitching Circle*

We are proud to feature designs from Plum Street Samplers, Cross Eyed Cricket, Heart in Hand, Teresa Layman, Erica Michaels, Jeannette Douglas, and Shakespeare's Peddler!

Cross stitch designers participating in the next round of the Stitching Circle

Delightful offerings approx every other month... till April of 2026 (if we can stay on schedule!)... these ladies will do their designing best to bring us pin-cushion-sized projects. Everything around 70 x 70 to 90 x 90 in stitch count... stitching, friendship or home sweet home themes... we're mindful of stitching time and budgets!

Every 8 weeks (or so!) we'll be sending you a fun pin-cushion-sized design, that will be kitted with fabric and threads (occasionally trim too). Our target budget this year is around $55 per kit. We always tuck in some sort of bonus 'treasure or what-not'... hopefully a functional needlework trinket or something cute that goes with our project. Our Designers will do their best to bring you something charming, we promise! Everybody loves surprises in the mail... and these certainly fit the bill!

Please call or e-mail us to join or RE-UP for this next cycle of 'A Little Help From Our Friends.' We do not automatically 'roll you over' unless we hear from you! Registration will be open for only a few weeks!

A Stitcher's Garden by The Drawn Thread Exclusively for the Silver Needle -- click to see more
A Stitcher's Garden from The Drawn Thread - Exclusively for the Silver Needle
By Cynthia Zittel, this is a busy design full of color and special stitches just like all her seasonal gardens. Joining Sunnyside, Kitchen, Herb and Butterfly Gardens, and the 4 Seasons set, this features everything special to its subject. She came as our Summer Event Designer a couple of years ago and this sampler and little linen tote was our project. Then, she did a companion pin cushion for our 'A Little Help From Our Friends' Stitching Circle last year to go with it.

Measuring 169 X 50 on 32ct Natural, it finishes just 10 x 3 but it's stuffed FULL of fun, specialty stitches that Cynthia loves so much. The 'flowers' in your garden are buttons, and thread spools, little floss skeins, and scissors.

Very Berry from Erica Michaels - click for more Very Berry from Erica Michaels - click for more
Very Berry!

Linda Stolz of Erica Michaels has designed an EXQUISITE wool strawberry... stitched on 30ct silk gauze!!! Designed to be a scissor fob or tiny pin cushion this little 2-1/2 x 1-3/4 confection is *way too pretty* to eat... and I'd never stick pins in mine!!! Here are all the details!

Stitched in Continental Stitch (just the first half of a Cross Stitch), your berry calls for 5 different shades of Gentle Art's hand-dyed Simply Wool -- you'll be stitching with one ply of thread. The stitched berries that wrap around the piece are little checkerboards of Mulberry and Buckeye Scarlet, the blossoms have hints of golden Brandy in them, and the leaves are a deep Blue Spruce, all against a Roasted Marshmallow background! A miniature strawberry patch on your Very Berry! Next, the berry top features matching Weeks Dye Works hand-dyed wool leaves!!!

Very Berry from Erica Michaels - click for moreVery Berry from Erica Michaels - click for more Charted for regular stitching, you could do this on linen... but our exclusive kit contains 30ct silk gauze instead! (Bigger holes than linen -- NO KIDDING!) When you are finished with the stitching, the long side is joined into a cone-shape, and the top is drawn/gathered together, with tiny wool leaves attached to the top! Just darling!!!

Offered as the complete kit, we have included the chart, gauze, 8 complete skeins of Gentle Art's Simply Wool, Weeks Dye Works wool, and your needle. Complete assembly instructions are included, along with stitching tips for the gauze! I'm holding the precious little berry in my hands in some of our pics... you can see how petite it is, and how very special and unique! *Thank You, Linda* for designing something so awesome... just for The Silver Needle!

1830s Rose Basket Needlebook from Samplers Not Forgotten
This was another She Shed Retreat project Kimberly came to present - she found the main flower basket motif on one of the antique samplers hanging in the room when she taught Hummingbird! I sent her home with the sampler, and we got this for our class afterward! Stitching on the front and back of the tri-fold piece, there is a companion scissor fob and pin cushion piece. Stitched on Weeks 36ct Confederate Gray, it features Weeks flosses of Lily Pad, Loden, Hibiscus, Aztec Red, Sun Dried Blue heron, Chestnut, Mocha and Bees Knees.

The complete original class kit contains the linen, wool, finishing fabric, flosses, the charts, and counting pins along with a gorgeous waxer that Kimberly made for class.


The Scarlet Aviary from Summer House Stitche Workes - click for more
The Scarlet Aviary by Summer House Stitche Workes This was the class kit presented by Beth Ann Seal at our Grand Summer Stitch Event a couple of years ago! The Scarlet Aviary is a stitched drum with a wool pin disk and pin cushion.

The original complete kit contains all Beth's fabrics, wools, threads, a waxer, the paper pieced drum topper kit, even all the stuffing for the drum! It was a fun class with lots of stuff to do. Colors are yummy, dusty patriotic in flavor.

Presenting Treats from The Silver Needle and The Scarlett House
Tanya has designed these cushions through our *A Little Help From Our Friends Stitching Circle.* We have always loved them - but our Circle designs retire - and they have not been available since they were part of the club releases.

Well! Tanya was here this weekend, and since we were having a lovely time (bottles of wine were involved!) out side on my back deck... they came up. After numerous requests, we're re-printing them for release!
  • Be My Friend measures about 4 x 4.
  • Flowers and Friendships measures approx 4 x 7.
  • Autumn Garden measures 4 x 7 as well. We've seen this one stitched with a black fence. Tanya liked that better than her white one in the pic!

Sterling Needle Minders, Ort Jars and Needle Jars from Michelle Ink - click for more
Sterling Needle Minders, Ort Jars and Needle Jars
Michelle Ink has made us more of our exclusive sterling needle minders that our A Little Help From Our Friends Stitching Circle Stitchers received a few years ago. She designed this gorgeous threaded needle nestled among swirly stitches just for The Silver Needle. Her silver comes from recycled electronic discards! Referred to as precious metals clay... they reclaim the sterling in old computer parts, and somehow get it into a clay medium. Michelle, then molds it, fires it (the clay burns off and we are left with the beautiful silver that was being thrown away!), tumbles it, antiques it, and then makes her pieces into our needle minders, and medallions on tiny jars.

You can see the quarter I put in the pic - for size reference - and I can guarantee you there is more silver in Michelle's pieces than that quarter! Gorgeous hand-made minders and elegant jars to love, USE and enjoy!

Birds & Berries
from Summer House Stitche Workes
We welcomed Beth Seal here this past weekend as a guest designer at our Grand Summer Stitching Event - and this charming little red, white and blue bird was her exclusive bonus to us!

Companioning the class kit, it's a sweet bird nestled among the summer leaves. Finishes about 3 x 3 on 32ct, and is offered as a single chart.

We also enjoyed a terrific trunk show... a took a few pics of all the charming Fragment cushions... when you scroll down to the Fragments in Time sets, you'll see even more. I just LOVE all of these! Thanks Beth!

Presenting The Pink Tulips Sampler
from The Drawn Thread
Cynthia was here last weekend as one of the guest designers at our Grand Summer Stitch Retreat - and she brought US a treat! Exclusively available at The Silver Needle, this charming little piece was inspired by the two guys who live next door to her - they brought her Pink Tulips on Valentine's Day this year!

Stitched on 32ct, it's just 64 stitches in size - so about 4 inches in size. Coded for silks, she has conversions on her site for DMC. Then, if you want, you can Google conversions to just about anything else you want. Just a pretty piece, it pops against the darkish fabric background!

She Shed Thread and Bead Mats - click for more I Stitched at The She Shed!
We have darling little stitching thread and bead mats that celebrate our Silver Needle She Shed Events! (We JUST missed our Cross Eyed Cricket Event... these came yesterday!) A large vinyl card, these measure 7 x 10 in size. They feature 12 thread holes, a 4 x 8 area of (attached) fleece to hold needles, loose beads and charms, and a needle minder that matches the artwork on the board.

Something to commemorate your visit... you survived a retreat weekend in the She Shed! We have these available when you come, or via the mail in case you've been and want one now!

This is the ORIGINAL design Linda used in her final appearance at The Silver Needle's 2018 Summer Stitching Event. Our chart includes all the original button embellishments to stitch the main trio pic of penquins and snowman AS WELL AS the Casual Friday and Prom Penguins (he is the one wearing the tux!) - both bonus charts that are included in our pack!

Darling, darling... ours is presented on the featured 32ct Crystal Mint linen by Picture This Plus... we have that available separately as well. (Crystal Linen is not longer made... so the fabric will not always be available going forward... so if you think you want it... get it NOW. The cut is large enough to stitch all the designs.) Our packs include the nose and snowflake buttons to stitch each chart, as well as a smattering of glisteny seed beads for the background snow. The design is coded for Weeks hand-dyed flosses and a smattering of DMC. Just a special November treat to help you celebrate the upcoming snowy season!

A Needle of Silver
from Hands On Design
We hosted Cathy Habermann during our annual 2018 Summer Stitching Event... and here is a tiny benefit! To honor the gals at The Silver Needle, she incorporated our shop name into her verse: A Needle of Silver & a Heart of Gold. She has designed us a pin cushion that measures 76 x 77 in stitch count.

Included with the chart is a bit of aqua felt to mark the place to poke needles and pins... and we just love it! Stitched on 32ct Antique White Belfast with DMC flosses of yellow, aqua and mossy greens. Offered as a chart. Thanks Cathy!!!


Sweet Honey from Shepherd's Bush -- click to see lots more
Announcing: The Town Square!
from Forty Cross Stitch Designers
A darling set of 40 tiny shops, businesses and churches that together, make up an awesome Town Square and Village!!! A collaboration between different designers and vendors at our Summer 2006 Wholesale Needlework Market... everyone got together, and designed a particular building as part of the overall village.

Sandie's Sweet Shop I can't remember off the top of my head who did what... but I do remember that Shepherd's Bush had a Honey Shop, Mosey 'n Me did the bookstore, Crescent Colours, now Classic Colorworks, had the saloon, Lizzie Kate did the Candy Shop, Sweetheart Tree had a Sweet-shop... there is a knitting shop, quilt shop, frame shop (East Side Moulding did that one!), a general store, haberdashery, bakery, a button shop -- done by Just Another Button Co!. The town hall, jail, fire station... Bent Creek did the fish shop... I could go on and on!

Anyway, offered as a set of 'freebie cross stitch charts' to those shops who attended the show all those years ago... Silver Needle has loaded all of these charts onto one CD for you... so you can have them all in one place, and print any or all... as many times as you wish! (We weren't sure our copier was up to all those thousands of copies anyhow... and nobody jumped up to baby-sit it while they ran!)
Cross Stitch Shop
Because of the time and effort involved in producing the set and duplicating the CDs, we have them available for $5.00 each. No limit to the number of CDs... good inexpensive stitcher surprises here! Ready to print in .jpg format... this is such a treat!

Several of the designers had special embellishments on their houses... we have most all of it, so when you get your Village, and decide which you're going to stitch... you can order any necessary fabrics, threads, buttons and charms from us!

Sorry we don't have a composite pic of the whole Village... nobody had stitched one for the show... but enjoy several of the individual pics we do have!

Klaer Ultra-Fine (Beading) Threader
A super-duper thin wire in melted into this plastic threader, securely attached to thread teeny needles, perfectly! Used in quilting, beadwork, heirloom sewing and fine needlework, the super-fine, diamond-shaped wire is designed for threading 'Betweens #12,' 'Sharps #11 and 12,' Milliners #11, and Beading #10 & 12. Absolutely wonderful... you'll want these to keep in every needlecase you own! Ours are packaged 2 to a pack, in a clear, protective plastic sleeve. Really cool!


Ultra-Fine Threader

Klaer All-Purpose Threader
A great all-around needle threader... these will thread Tapestry needles as well as many others. The durable design features a wire that is fused into the plastic housing, along with a recessed cutting blade on the opposite end! There is even a small hole provided in case you want to attach it to a favorite chatelaine or project! Ours are packaged in pairs in a protective plastic sleeve. Very handy!


All-Purpose Threader

Klaer Needlework Threader
The heavy-duty version of our other two threaders, this one is perfect for Tapestry and Chenille needles. Used for needlepoint, cross-stitch, hardanger and embroidery, it's perfect for Pearl Cottons, yarn, ribbons and specialty threads (like some of the heavier Rainbow Gallery ones!). The square design of the threader allows the thread to 'spread out' as it passes through the eye of the needle, so there is much less stress, (and less breakage later on!) It features a recessed cutting blade, as well as a hole for attachment to a chatelaine or sewing case. Packaged by the pair in a wonderful clear plastic protective sleeve.


Needlework Threader

Klaer Threader Collection
A trio of needle threaders, each with a specific use. Specially packaged for The Silver Needle in a handy, clear storage sleeve. $7.95 pkg.

Ultra-Fine: for quilting and beading needles.

All Purpose: a good general use threader with a built-in cutter.

Heavy-Duty Threader: for larger threads and delicate fibers, too. Also has a built-in cutter.
