Whoops....this got published in the midst of some other shots.....the sign at The Patch in West Virginia.....painted on a piece of slate. It hangs in our house now.

Like that apple green background on this sign......our countertop was the same color...remember that! When the counter was made, this was the right price. We actually moved it to the new store in Olde Ridge Village in 1982

Look for the Welcome Sign in the picture of the four of us getting ready to open. Notice the strawberry fabric.....I found this - maybe I mentioned this before - when I was visiting Dad and cleaning out fabrics that Mom had stored away. She saved everything! Thank goodness!

This was my cardboard sign posted in the downstairs at The Farmhouse Shoppes before we opened.......telling everyone

Counted Cross Stitch..everything you need to count on!
