needlework shop located in Wethersfield, Connecticut that specializes in
counted thread embroidery, canvas (needlepoint) embroidery, and
crewel embroidery. We offer a wide variety of needlework
products and accessories
to meet your every need.
After 32 years in Glastonbury, CT,
Thistle Needleworks moved to Wethersfield, CT
in September 2015.

Our hours are 9:30 am - 5:30 pm on Tuesday through Friday,
Thursday evening by appointment, and 9:30 am - 4:00 pm on Saturday.

Since the state of Connecticut no longer has a mask mandate, face masks
are not required now, but are certainly not discouraged. Please use
your best judgment.
Shipping of your supplies and/or vestibule/in-store pickup will continue
and is, indeed, encouraged. These orders are best placed with us online
at
store.APNeedleArts.com where we have added a shipping option of
"Vestibule/In-Store Pickup", or by email. When you place an order
for pickup, we will call you when it is ready and arrange to put it
out for you at the appropriate time.
Judie's in-store "Open Classroom" classes have resumed on
Tuesday afternoons and Thursday mornings.
See the
class
schedule and our
calendar
of events.
You may order online at
APNeedleArts.com
(preferred),
via email to
ThisNeedle@aol.com,
