Focus on the good stuff

Brooke out in The PDX area mentioned this place in his latest entry.

This place being Stitch Craft.

StitchCraft, is Vancouver, Washington's premier yarn and fabric boutique. Handmade is beautiful.

We feature yarn, fabric, patterns, books and notions with a fashion forward sense using high quality, natural fibers. If you love to sew, knit, crochet, embroider, or embellish, this is a boutique for you. In addition to our wonderful selection of lovely natural fibers, we specialize in organic;

• yarns
• sewing fabrics
• upholstery fabrics
• lace trims
• wallpapers (yes! organic wallpaper).

We welcome artisans of all types. Come and support a locally owned business and discover fine products you won't find in a big box store. Create with products hand picked with sustainability in mind.

Sounds pretty good eh?

Seek out these type of brick and mortar store fronts. Places like that and The Market at Cutler Mills need our support. Think about where you buy stuff. Spending an extra dollar on a handful of items is well worth it, esp when you consider the extra hidden costs at giant 'discount' chains.
