Special Information from
The Posy Collection
for Gift Shop Managers and Buyers

Are you interested in cross stitch kits for your gift shop? From the colonial days onward, needlework has been a significant component of our national heritage. By including one or more custom designed cross stitch kits from The Posy Collection in your shop, you will be giving your customers the opportunity to connect with this part of our heritage.

For more than two decades, Posy Lough of The Posy Collection has been producing custom-designed counted cross stitch kits for museums and historic properties. Gift shops at Monticello, Mount Vernon, Independence Hall, Old Sturbridge Village, Devils Tower, Middleton Place, and many other locations are enjoying the steady sales of cross stitch kits from The Posy Collection. Museum shop managers report that tourists are increasingly purchasing needlework kits representing their destinations to create their own souvenirs. Kits from the Posy Collection appeal to visitors who are looking for a unique memento of their travels.

Recently, Posy introduced a new line of cross stitch kits with the design stamped right on the fabric. These stamped-on kits are wonderful for beginning stitchers and for elderly stitchers who have difficulty with small-scale needlework. Many shops are finding that a good mix of counted cross stitch kits and stamped-on cross stitch kits has a wide customer appeal. The stamped-on kits are economical, giving you a low price point to offer as well. Finally, the development time for a custom-designed stamped-on kit is usually quite short. This means you can have the kit ready for your shelves within weeks. 

Why not have The Posy Collection create a kit or two for your shop? Contact Posy Lough to get started in your own kit development process.
