Needlepoint Shops in Columbus, Mississippi

One shop we can confirm, Mary Dona's Fibers and Fonts on Highway 45 North, a needlepoint and stationery shop about two and a half miles northwest of the middle of the city.

Mary Dona's Fibers and Fonts sells needlepoint and custom stationery side by side, on Highway 45 North about two and a half miles northwest of the middle of Columbus. It is the one needlepoint shop we can confirm around Columbus, with canvases from more than thirty designers, silk and silk-blend threads, and a monthly class for new stitchers.

The shop began as a custom stationery company and added needlepoint in 2025. It still sells both, and the custom invitations are by appointment.

The hours are the thing to plan around

Its fall hours, posted from September 1, run from Tuesday to Saturday: Tuesday from 11am to 6pm, Wednesday from 11am to 4pm, Thursday from 1pm to 6pm, Friday from 11am to 4pm, and Saturday from 10am to 3pm. It publishes no Sunday or Monday hours. Tuesday and Thursday are the two days that run until 6pm, and Thursday does not open until 1pm.

Before you go

• Call ahead. The shop's number is (662) 574-5334, and the hours above are its fall hours, so check them again once the season turns.
• Ask for the next Basic Class. It runs once a month, and the Beyond Basic Class follows for stitchers ready for more.
• Bring the canvas if you have one. Thread and mesh have to be matched to the specific canvas, and nobody can do that from a photograph. See our thread guide for what that pairing involves.
