We moved in July 2010 to 1734 Clement Avenue - 1.6 miles from our previous Webster Street address which gives us 3,000 square feet of store space and plenty of free parking. Clement Avenue is a light industrial area bordered by residential. The building is a converted 1950's pencil factory with 24' high ceilings and post and beam construction.

We have both a front and rear entrance. The front entrance on Clement Avenue has a few steps to get into the shop. The rear entrance, off the parking lot is flat so is more suitable for wheeled devices - or if you just don't like stairs. If you park in the lot please use the 3 spaces marked NEEDLE on the Union Street side of the lot. We hope you'll come by to visit our new location! Photos can be found on our About page.

At Needle In A Haystack we specialize in hard-to-find needlework supplies with extensive selections in fabrics and threads. We carry cross-stitch and counted-thread designs by a wide range of designers, books on many forms of embroidery and a large selection of hand-painted needlepoint canvases, including Stitch 'n Zip Kits. You will find a list of many of our threads, fabrics and designers listed here and we add new items in the shop on a regular basis. 

Our Stitching Has Its Rewards card is free and you can use it as a Gift Card, a Rewards Card or both. Visit our Stitching Has Its Rewards page for program details and to order a card. If you wish to purchase a Gift Card please visit our Gift Card page.

We have an on-line catalog for our threads, fabrics, embellishments, books, accessories and several counted-thread designers. Check it out to see what's available if you want to purchase on-line. Our on-line catalog features only a fraction of what we carry in the store and you're welcome to contact us to see if we have an item you can't locate.

If you're looking for cross-stitch charts you can use our Hoffman Merchant Mall pages. You can order anything from Hoffman's inventory through our secure cart. This is a partnership we have with Hoffman Distributing and we hope it will give you more options to find the items you're looking for.

If accessories are your passion we carry a variety of needlework tools, hand-turned wood tools, charms, project bags and a host of other items. Do you want to finish your work with something other than a frame or custom finishing? We have a selection of boxes, leather goods and other fun finishing items for you to choose from. If you're looking for a gift for your favorite stitcher, check out our online gift ideas.

An oasis from the rush of daily life, we try to make our store like a home away from home. We have tables throughout the store where you can work on your project or spread out items to consider. Or relax on the couch while you ponder a color choice.

You are always welcome to stop by the shop anytime, share a pot of tea with us and sit and stitch a while.
