Stitched in Groton

Seeing the multi-talented Sonja's embroidery project reminded me that I've forgotten to write about a wonderful store I found in Groton, CT during our recent road trip.

Salt & Light Stitchery--no website--is a tiny, pretty store



chock-full of vintage and "period inspired" goodies. Quilts, loom-woven placemats, tatted hankies and pillowcases, hand-dipped candles, lace doilies, hand-made soaps and

embroidered tea towels and hankies



and embroidered pillow cases



I was in heaven!
Did anything follow me home? But of course!

Store information:
Salt & Light Stitchery
179 Thames Street
Groton, CT
phone: 860-449-0120
email: saltandlightstitchery@yahoo.com

No affiliation with this gem of a store except as a happy customer.

Look out! The embroidery bug bites pretty hard and doesn't let go easily! :)

Don't older pillowcases feel better, thicker and softer and just BETTER?! Looks like a lovely shop.
