Continuing their dedication to their customers' needs, Marion's Nimble Needle offers formal stitchery classes twice each year. "We've had customers who have enjoyed our classes so much that they continue to gather here weekly long after the class has ended just to sit, chat and needlepoint with us." "The way we preserve my mother's tradition", says Laurie Chiavari, Marion's daughter, "is by offering the best in customer service; always with a friendly smile and a welcoming attitude. We teach different stitches and offer suggestions to make every customer's needlepoint experience a great one!" New and seasoned needlepointers alike will be inspired by the selection as well as the friendly, family atmosphere at Marion's Nimble Needle. In 2005, Marion's Nimble Needle decided it was time to expand into the world of the internet. One of the motivating factors in creating www.marionsnimbleneedle.com , was the many loyal Marion's Nimble Needle customers who travel back and forth between Florida homes and homes in the north. During the summer months when these "snowbirds" are living at their homes in New York, Canada, Chicago, etc., we get many, many requests to ship projects up to them. So we knew that if our customers were able to actually view the canvases on-line, it would make it easier for them to order. Our new mission is to become a place were needlepointers across the country can go to find beautiful canvases, threads and accessories to satisfy all their needlepointing needs. In addition, we hope to inspire all our customers with creative stitching and unusual project ideas.
