Julie's Vacation Schedule
Julie's closing her retail store in Key West for the summer, effective July 5. The on-line store will remain open -- except for the period between August 12 - September 9, but Julie will not be available to kit canvases after July 15. Click article title for details.

Island Needlework, Julie's retail location in Key West, will be closed from July 5 to November 1. Julie is heading to St. Augustine for vacation, relaxation and creation of new canvases. She has a lovely beach house just waiting for her -- and lots of relatives -- to arrive.

During her sabbatical, the internet store will remain open-- except for the period August 12 - September 9, when Pam will be on vacation herself. At all other times during Julie's summer sabbatical, Pam wil be monitoring emails and the answering machine, so don't be afraid to order a new project or select a special gift for a stitching friend. She'll ship orders twice per week, probably Mondays and Thursdays.

What Pam won't be doing is kitting canvases -- though we love her, we have to admit she's completely inept when it comes to choosing the perfect color or particular fiber that will make your next project soar.

So-o-o-o, if you want something kitted, order now! Julie will kit canvases through July 15. Then she's off to the beach.
