Whitney Point Crafters Build Community, One Stitch at a Time

Whitney Point’s vibrant community spirit shines through its local groups, including those who gather to share their love for handicrafts. The Crafternoon Shoppe, a beloved fixture on Railroad Street, hosts a monthly "Stitch Together - Community Crafternoon," providing a warm and welcoming space for local residents to connect and create.

The next "Stitch Together" event is scheduled for Saturday, June 6, 2026, from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM. Participants are encouraged to bring their current hand projects, whether it's knitting, crocheting, embroidery, or hand sewing, for an afternoon of shared artistry and friendly conversation.

Located at 9 Railroad Street, The Crafternoon Shoppe describes itself as a "delightfully cute and whimsical quilt shop." Beyond its array of quilting cottons, the shop also stocks supplies and kits for various crafts, including knitting, crochet, embroidery, and felting, making it a hub for creative endeavors in the village.

These recurring gatherings, held on the first Saturday of each month from October through June, are designed for "local crafty folks" to work on their projects in good company. While not an instructional setting, the shared environment often leads to informal learning, with crafters helping one another with challenges or new skills, further strengthening community bonds.

This initiative by The Crafternoon Shoppe highlights the rich tapestry of interests and connections within Whitney Point. For those interested in joining the next "Stitch Together" event or learning more about the shop's offerings, The Crafternoon Shoppe can be reached directly at 607-663-1765 or crafternoonshoppe@gmail.com.
