Pretty much a cross-stitcher’s dream. They have hundreds of cute patterns to choose from. The walls are filled with examples that they’ve framed. The staff are experts. Finally, they have all different kinds of cross stitch fabric in all different counts in all different kinds of colors. I love coming here.
I love this place. I am a beginner learning on linen and they have been so helpful. Theyve opened my eyes to Hardanger cut work which is absolutely stunning to admire but very challenging if you dont know what youre doing like me. They have EVERYTHING IMAGINEABLE AND THEN SOME FOR NEEDLE WORK. I could spend all day in there. I wanted to go there today but got too late.
If you need it they have it and they are so helpful. The new online presence is very welcome too!
Wonderful selection of fabrics, patterns, floss and accessories. Beautiful stitched pieces everywhere you look. Best of all is how helpful and knowledgeable all the staff is! Never have I enjoyed a stitching store more!!!
This lovely shop was a touch overwhelming in a very good way. When it comes to thread it puts my local shop to shame – what a treat! I spent a good hour wandering around to really get a good look at everything and found some patterns Im very excited to own. The store is neat, well organized and even the washroom is full of inspiration! I was so pleased to see a lot of people in there and the finished samples are stunning.
This is a great cross stitching shop! They have a wide selection of threads, fabrics, patterns, and supplies. The employees are super friendly and knowledgeable. While I was there, I overheard them helping a gentleman pick out fabric, supplies, and thread for his first project that he had done in years, and they were extremely helpful, encouraging, and accommodating. I also heard them helping a woman who wanted to try her first project, and they walked her through the basics. I was a fantastic experience and I highly recommend visiting.
Full of all sorts of thread in all sorts of fibers, with some cord and ribbon. Some supplies, such as hoops, needles and such, with a small array of fabrics as well as decorative buttons. Lots of patterns and small kits.Ladies who work there very nice, very helpful.As of January 10, 2020, only letting two customers in at a time as the shop is small and somewhat crowded, but theres a sign up sheet so you can wait in your vehicle and the ladies were very good about getting the next person in line.Theres no online store but you can phone in orders.
So many beautiful kits an embroidery and and cross stitch. Oh my.
I love this shop! They have done an excellent job on my wool special orders, have fair prices, and the biggest selection of thread I have ever seen! Thank you Jeannine and crew. 😊
For all your cross stitch needs. If they dont have it, they order for you.
Great little shop, and super friendly service. I got all the help I needed to buy basic supplies to get started cross stitching, plus lots of advice and zero up selling. Can’t wait to go back and get more colors!As of January 2021, they were letting two people at a time in the store. There’s a little sign up list out front where you can leave your name and/or number and wait in your car until its your turn.All in all, great experience, and very happy to buy local instead of online. Highly recommend.
I was in the area of this shop and decided to stop in to see if they carried any quilling supplies which they do not. But the amount of needlepoint items in that store was just jaw dropping. I am not really into needlepoint but if I ever am or if I have a friend who ever is I will know exactly where to tell them to go.
Wonderful needlework shop. Excellent selection of patterns, threads, fabric and the service OUTSTANDING.
The staff here are always so kind, attentive, and down to earth. The store is very clean and organized, but at the same time warm and inviting. If not for covid, I could hang around for hours!
Just participated in an online (Zoom) retreat with Acorns and Threads…..can’t say enough good things about the owner, staff and teachers for this retreat.
I love this treasure chest of a specialty shop.
Wonderful place. Tons of supplies. If you are looking for something they dont have they will order it for you. Lovely people. Makes me wanna open a stitchy shop of my one just like them one day when I grow up.
Wonderful needlework shop!! Incredible staff that can help with anything you need. Amazing selection of fabric, fibers and charts. I love this store so much I drive 3 hours each way to visit!
It is an amazing store. I was so proud that I kept under my budget but let me tell you, it was really HARD!!
A wonder store. I love all the patterns and ideas. The ladies of store are wonderful and helpful.
I could spend hours in this store. The staff are great and helpful.
First time there!!!! There is so much to look at. The ladies were very helpful in so many ways. I forgot my phone and called them 5 min. to closing. They were so generous with their own time. I said we are going to leave Portland the next morning. The one gal said I will wait but if we close the store I will go to the pub in a the same parking lot and meet you there. I really loved the ladies and the shop. Thanks for a great visit.
I cant say enough about Acorns & Threads. I went in today for the first time in about 6 years and I REALLY missed this place. If you want to get a master class in customer service, just come in here and watch for an hour as the lovely ladies at Acorns & Threads teach you how to give phenomenal customer service.This is a judgement free zone. I heard the same thing today as I heard 6 years ago: There are no cross-stitch police meaning, cross-stitch however the hell you want. Be happy! Jeannine is the owner and she is a wealth of knowledge as are her employees!Seriously, if you have ever cross stitched, thought of cross stitching, or know someone who does cross stitch, do yourself a favor and visit this gem of a store. I cant say enough about how great it is.If you need advice, they have it. If you need help, theyll give it. If you need a small project, theyll help you find one. If you frustrated, theyll listen. Ive been to a number of cross stitch stores, and this is the best one Ive ever been to. If youre buying floss at a big box store, stop! Come to Acorns & Threads!
Always wonderful!!
Lovely, adorable store. You will be inspired if you go into this store. Professional, friendly folks work here.
What a gem of a store! The ladies were super friendly when I went in for the first time today. I cant wait to go back! Theres a great selection of so many patterns, threads, embellishments, fabrics- anything you could think of, they probably have it. They even host a group on Tuesdays where you can bring your projects and work on them! So cool!
I love this shop. Laurie and Jeanine are very helpful and just plain nice. I feel like I am visiting friends when I come shopping. They work hard to make the shop inviting and a joy to visit. If there is something you want to order, they will get it. If they cant get it, no one can.
One of my favorite places
Friendly staff that are super helpful and welcoming. Great selection of patterns, specialty threads and fabrics. One of my favorite places. You will love it here!
Lovely shop! Have a lot of beautiful threads for cross stitch or needlepoint. The ladies were very helpful. Will be shopping there very soon for my next project.
The initial greeting was warm and friendly. Was looking at the items for a trunk show. DO Not Touch per the owner? Didnt even ask if I wanted her to check if they had the chart....just that it could be mailed. Nothing like feeling you arent welcome in her store. Will make up my own chart and wont buy from that store ever again.
The staff will go out of their way to help you find anything, change floss colors, or try something new! @Patti - Trunk Shows sometimes display things that dont belong to the shop owner, and the oils on your hands can stain the needlework - she was being careful with what was entrusted to her as a loan! The patterns can sell out really quickly at trunk shows, so she probably knew they didnt have any left. Try going there again, theyre really nice!!!
I sometimes think that I may be the official shop mascot because I am here so often, but it really is worth being there often. The linens, threads, and patterns are updated weekly with new charts, colors, or re-stocks of popular items. There are always stitch groups and trunk shows from designers. There are always M&Ms, makes the trip so perfect. I have been here a hundred times, and I think that I have seen everything, but it is so full of great stuff and new possibilities that I have only scratched the surface of what there is to see. There are lots of models on the wall and if you want to order a pattern, they can usually get it in in about a week. Before I lived in the area I always ordered online, now I only purchase from the shop and everyone I have met here is a friend!
Staffers with friendly, helpful, knowledgeable staff, and willing to accommodate special requests. Unique selection of stitching threads, some hand overdyed, really beautiful. Lots of choices in patterns and ephemera Recommended.
First time there today. Thank you are all help in selecting the right canvas for my project.
Love going to this place. Dont get to very often. Ladies are most helpful. Too many great items to chose from. Almost overwhelming, but cross stitching heaven.
This store is amazing. The owner, Jeannine, is equally amazing. If you need something related to cross stitch, she knows what it is and she either has it in stock for you or she will order it and hold it or order it and ship it. No need to look any further for a Needlework store!
Went to get a pattern I ordered. Ended up getting fabric and more stuff. Great customer service. Good prices.
Very nice and friendly people. Who are very knowledgeable and helpful. Love the place.
For all your stitching needs, this is a great shop. Kid in a candy land!
Friendly, helpful staff and a wonderful selection from beginner to expert.
Great selection of cross stitch and other supplies. Knowledgeable staff!
Laid back friendly staff with a devoted customer base. Great selection of everything you need. All skill levels welcome.
A friendly shop with loads of patterns, threads, supplies and more. They seem to cater to cross-stitching above other needlework but theyve always had what I needed for embroidery.
Great choice of linen fabrics and wonderful staff.
Best place to get threads and linen cloth.
Wonderful full service needlework store. Friendly staff and helpful!
I love this shop. The staff is very friendly, helpful, and so much fun.
