Something new this year......a blog!

Welcome to our blog! We hope to post updates about new merchandise, trunk shows and events, and sales here. It is our hope that you will save us under your favorites and check in frequently. Please be patient with us as we forge into this new venture!

Annual 1752 Company Lace Show

This Friday and Saturday, January 8 and 9, 2010, the Smock Shoppe will welcome Elizabeth from The 1752 Company. In her trunk show, Elizabeth will have the exquisite English netting laces, as well as some beautiful antique laces, fabrics and other specialty pieces. This is the perfect time to begin planning for Easter and spring pageants......Easter is April 4th and it's never too busy to start sewing!

The Maja's Heirlooms Trunk Show is still hanging in the shop and we hope you will stop by if you haven't seen the wonderful designs she is offering in her line of patterns. Because of the late arrival of the show, she has graciously allowed us to keep it longer than usual. We love the pants in her line and there are many cute tops!

After the 1752 Trunk Show, we will be attending the spring market in Birmingham. We can't wait to see what's new in fabrics, patterns, and plates to bring back to you!
