Sage Stitchworks has retired for personal/family reasons and is no longer selling mottoes at this time.

I am posting all of the images of the mottoes I carried on this blog so that anyone needing a reference to them for completing their purchased motto kits can view them. These mottoes are still my original copyrighted designs and are not to be copied.

I appreciate all of my loyal customers and the wonderful people I met during the years that Sage Stitchworks was in business! I also appreciate my mom who encouraged me and helped me at all of the craft shows! Thank you!

If ever I decide to do anything with these mottoes in the future, I'll let you know here!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING! I'M THANKFUL FOR YOU!

While everyone is busy getting ready for Turkey Day '06, I would like to take a moment to tell all of you, my loyal customers, how thankful I am for each and every one of you! It has been a good year and I have gotten to enjoy talking with some of you over the phone or seeing you at my craft show booth! And for those that I never speak to or meet in person, I am thankful for you too. My prayer for each of you is that the mottos that you have purchased from Sage Stitchworks will be a blessing to you and your family - and the homes of the friends and family you choose to bless your stitchings with as well! May you have a sweet time with your loved ones this Thanksgiving. I look foward to hearing from you all throughout the rest of the Holiday Season as we get ready for Christmas!

Time for school again already?!
The fall craft fairs are almost upon us.

We have had an extremely busy year - it has literally flown by! I do not even know where the summer went but here we are....back in school again and getting ready for the fall craft shows in October.

Due to a scheduling conflict, we will only be showing in Springdale at the NWA Convention Center (next to the Holiday Inn), October 20th & 21st, 2006. Hopefully we will be able to attend An Affair of the Heart again in 2007 - if they change the weekend back to the last weekend in October. We will miss seeing the OKC folks this year but you can still shop with us online on our secure server and receive your mottos by Priority Mail.

For my Northwest Arkansas "War Eagle Weekend" customers: We will have some new mottos on display so be sure to stop by our booth at the NWA Convention Center to see them and say, "hello!" Follow your nose to our booth - we're right next to the cinnamon nuts!

Everyone take care getting back into the swing of school schedules and get ready for the fall stitching season! Christmas is just around the corner.

"HOW DO I LOVE THEE? LET ME COUNT THE WAYS..."

Except we don't have to count! It doesn't get any easier than this.

This motto would be a wonderful Valentine's Day gift for that special loved one! These are great to give either finished or as kits to the other stitchers in your life. (Or maybe you should drop a big hint to your sweetie that this is on your Valentine "Wish List". Send him this link!)

Order now to receive in time for the holiday. This is much better for you than a box of chocolate and will last longer than a rose! This will be an heirloom you create that will pass down for generations to come.
