About us

Welcome to the whimsical world of Merry L. Needlework Accessories, run by the dynamic mother-daughter duo, Ellen and Mary Ellen, in Birmingham, Alabama.

Crafted with passion and purpose, each of our ‘very handy’ needlework accessories is a testament to our commitment to quality and creativity. From our thoughtfully sourced merino wool felt from Holland to the exquisite glass beads from Japan and Czechoslovakia, and the resilient neodymium rare earth magnets, we spare no effort in ensuring that every piece is unique and high quality.

Merry L. Needlework Accessories began in 2012 when an act of friendship blossomed into the creation of our beloved Cozie Needle Minder. Since then, our line has expanded to include scissor fobs, laying tools, and an array of stitching essentials inspired by the needs and desires of our stitching community.

What sets us apart is not just our dedication to craftsmanship but also our unwavering commitment to personal connection. Whether it's designing bespoke needlework class and retreat gifts or collaborating with fellow stitchers and shops, each creation is infused with the warmth and friendship that define our journey.

While we exclusively serve brick and mortar shops through wholesale, we’re always thrilled to welcome new partners into our stitching family. Simply reach out to Ellen at (205) 585-5961 or by email at skippingstitches@charter.net to learn more.

At Merry L. Needlework Accessories, we don’t just craft accessories; we bring a touch of fun, personality, and organization to your needlework projects, one stitch at a time. Welcome to our cozy corner of creativity!
