Half Moon Handwerks
...the journey begins with a single stitch
June
“Not ’till June can the grass be said to be waving in the fields. When the frogs dream, and the grass waves, and the buttercups toss their heads, and the heat disposes to bathe in the ponds and streams, then is summer begun.”
– Henry David Thoreau

Here’s What Our Customers Have to Say…
Serving Central Pennsylvania since 2010
We had an absolutely enjoyable experience. Deb, the owner, was so helpful and knowledgeable. As a cross stitcher, I was pleasantly surprised at the selection of flosses and the amount in inventory. Deb also had some very nice linens to choose from. A great experience!
I had quite an enjoyable time on this, my first visit to your new shop. Thanks for the much needed help in finding the perfect thread for my needlework project. Everything was above and beyond expoectations - thank you.
Always a delight coming to your shop. Thank you for cheering up my day by letting me "pet" your fabric!
Fantastic shop which has a wealth of material for Quilting as well as specialty supplies for every type of needle work imaginable. Fabric is very reasonably priced. I will be making this one of my regular stops!
Personally, I had a wonderful time in your shop and I know that I will be coming back, as your selection of fabric is all in my toolbox of toys! I am a big fan of bright colors and jazzy designs and your store is filled with so many wonderful things to see and touch and ponder.
