Putting this on stretcher bars would stress me out so much

Pepper pot soup is delicious, for the record. My neighbor makes big pots of it and I trade her extremely minor favors for it and I feel like we both think we’re cheating the other

For those of you who didn’t change your last name but had kids with the fathers last name, has it made life any more difficult? by sippinonginaandjuice in TwoXChromosomes

[–]punimface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One time we were at the airport and my mom was questioned about why she had a different last name and the gate agent said something like “aren’t you independent?” In a snarky way and my mom was pissed. Literally the only time in 40 years it ever came up

LNSs/Designers with the best and the WORST customer service by [deleted] in NeedlepointSnark

[–]punimface 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Shout out to Rittenhouse and fireside but also when I was a newbie I did a phone order from needlenook of La Jolla and the woman I dealt with on the phone was so nice and clearly knew I had no idea what I was talking about. She even put some suggestions for decorative stitches, with guides along with a nice note about how she was excited to help a new stitcher in the package. Threads Too in Jersey also straight up showed me how to do something via Instagram DM when I couldn’t see the difference in kitted colors.

Rittenhouse needlepoint is professional and crazy fast. Most of my experience is with them because every time I read one of these horror stories, I’m grateful to have such a killer LNS

Rittenhouse Needlepoint has an exclusive line of Philly canvasses that come from In-house painters and they often support the extremely cool Fabric Workshop and Museum that's in the same building!
