Thanks for a great list of resources. I have found most of these items at the multiple Hobby Lobby stores here in Colorado. I did have to order the good DMC needles on Amazon.

What do you do with the things you stick when you are finished with them? What do your readers do with theirs?

Where is the best place to order hoops? I really like the ones that come in your kits. I buy the hobby lobby ones to stitch a project, but I like to display the final product in one that looks a little nicer. I think beechwood are the nice ones?

Unfortunately most of these supplies are only available on line here in Colorado. I’m seeing a slight resurgence in this craft. But not nearly as fast as needed.
