Needle in a Haystack is celebrating 20 years of serving needleworkers.
Cathe Ray was a gospel singer and computer programmer before she decided to start a needlework store in which she would like to shop. She started Needle In A Haystack while she was working full time, then told the corporate world good bye and has now built one of the best sources for top-quality needlework supplies available to stitchers. This year she celebrates 20 years in business. Along the way she has been fortunate to have a talented staff that makes a difference in stitching success for in-store and online customers. It’s a tremendous story about a talented lady and we’re confident you’ll enjoy it.–Gary and Christine
