Who We Are
In April of 2023, four creative Artisans came together and opened The Stitch 'n Bead. Two seamstresses and embroidery Artisans, Shari Hale and Pat McAdams, one gemstone bead jewelry Artisan, Cristina Salvatore, and Cindi McGee, a mixed-media Artisan offering etched glass, handmade soap and spa items, candles, and polymer clay designs. In July of 2024, Pottery Artisan Fred Newman joined us. We are the core makers for our boutique. Beautiful art cards by watercolor artist, Diana Johnson are also available at our boutique. Our monthly Guest Artisan program spotlights someone new each month. You never know what you'll find here, as each week (and sometimes each day!) the variety of creative gifts and accessories changes!
