Nook & Needle

Nook & Needle An all new cross-stitch shop and bookstore, coming in fall 2025 to Dayton, Ohio!

08/21/2025

It is with the heaviest of hearts that I must make the announcement:

💔 Plans for Nook & Needle's retail location have been indefinitely suspended. 💔

With the current economic instability and new announcements every day of stitching vendors ceasing US shipping, it is not feasible to open for business at this time.

We are so grateful to all of you, as well as the team at the Dayton Arcade, for supporting us every step of the way, and we hope that in the future, the plans for Nook & Needle can be revived when the economy is more conducive to starting a new small business.

Thank you to all of you for your support. We will be posting our inventory for sale on our website. I will also be continuing to sell patterns, notions, accessories, and more under my current online retail presence, Valkyrie Stitchworks.

Something we have heard quite a few times since our announcement is that people didn't realize the Dayton Arcade had reopened for business.

After closing in 1992, the Arcade sat vacant and decaying for nearly 30 years before Cross Street Partners stepped in to begin the overwhelming restoration project. ThinkTV/PBS released a series on YouTube documenting the efforts it took to breath life into this Dayton landmark that was nearly lost to history.

First Friday was amazing! There was a huge turnout and everyone was so excited to see the North Arcade for the first time!

I wanted to share this incredible before and after photo of the renovations. Cross Street Partners has poured so much time, money, and love into a building most would have written off as a lost cause. But they saw the value of the history under all of the rot and disrepair and we are so grateful to them for "waking the sleeping giant."

We are extremely excited to announce that Nook & Needle will be opening in the stunning Dayton Arcade!

Get a sneak peak of our space and the incredible transformation of the Arcade tomorrow night 5-8 pm during First Friday!

The North Arcade or North concourse is the most recent focus of the ongoing renovations to this architectural gem. Nook & Needle will be one of the inaugural tenants when the North Arcade reopens this fall.

Built in 1902, the Dayton Arcade sat vacant for nearly 30 years after closing in the early 1990s. This stunning complex, with it's signature domed glass roof over the main rotunda, is being brought back to life section by section and we cannot wait to be a part of it!

We can't wait to open this door for all of you! 📚🪡
