Introducing RETROMANTIC

Well we are finally ready to tell all....

Images Stitchery Design is making some major changes....

First and foremost we are changing our name! As of August 1st we will be Retromantic. Retromantic is a business Kathy had in the past that sold vintage, candles and anything she loved. As we have grown in the last year we have come to realize that the name Images Stitchery Design does not really reflect who we are now or who we want to be.


We are lovers of vintage, history, whimsy, ephemera, texture, and everything pretty. Retromantic, we feel, reflects all of this.

Secondly, as we have been experiencing crazy great growth, we realize we need to adjust some of our business practices and costs. While no one ever wants to raise prices or costs, in order to grow how we, and believe you want us to, it must be done. We have pored over a great deal of research and feel what we have come up with is fair for all. Ok, enough of the serious stuff.

We have a new website we are VERY proud of. We have done it all ourselves and we think it is coming along pretty well. (retromanticfripperies.com) Check it out and tell us what you think.

And finally, we have brought some of our favorite men into the business. Richmond Powers (creative guru) has come back into the fold, Tom Cabezas is helping with production and is a general genius with ideas and shortcuts, and shop dog Percy keeps us all in line.

While we realize we have not been able to get orders out to all of you as quickly as we all want we are hoping all of these changes will help.

Our website is going to give you all the details and, of course, we are happy to answer any questions.

We are now trying to get the current orders out to all of you and getting ready for the TNNA St. Charles trade show in a week and a half!

If you are going to be there,stop by room #615 and see our new designs.

Kath, Molly, Richmond, and Tom
