A
note from Sue - Hello to all of the faithful
"Fuzzy Penguin" customers who have either
come up the hill or called for mail order. We all
will miss Fuzzy. Carla and I have grown to be very
special friends as well as co-shop owners, we will
continue to be friends. On a professional note, this
leaves a gap for all of us. In the past I was able
to keep our shop stocked with selected items and rely
on Fuzzy to fill the gaps. It will take Kelsey's some
time to be able to stock the same level of inventory
as Fuzzy. Remember, the volume of inventory at Fuzzy's
did not happen over night!!!! We are asking for your
patience and to give us an opportunity to fill orders
for you. We may not be able to obtain inventory in
a week or two, it may take a month or two. With your
continued support and as time goes on we will be able
to expand our inventory and provide more and more
inventory. Thank you to all our customers for being
patient.
Well winter
is over, summer is here. What happened to spring?
With the thermometer raising as fast as gas prices,
it is time to make some cool lemonade or ice tea,
and sit and stitch. This is a wonderful way to relax
and it is never to early to start your holiday stitching.
Downtown
Placerville - If it has been a while since
you have been to Historic Downtown Placerville, it
is time for a wonderful experience. There are dozens
of terrific shops (not just antiques), numerous delicious
restaurants, and plenty of FREE parking. For our local
customers, parking is not an issue, we always have
empty spaces in front of the shop between noon and
5:00pm. On weekends you can park behind the old "City
Hall" in the reserved spaces. Did you know that
if you park in the parking garage and walk to our
shop, you are walking less distance than if you parked
in WalMart's front parking spaces and walk to the
back of that store. There is always parking in the
garage. To see what is happening on Main Street look

Happy
Stitching !
