Needlepoint Shops in Huntsville

One shop we can confirm, Sister Stitches on Wellman Avenue, about a mile northeast of downtown.

Huntsville has one needlepoint shop we can confirm. Sister Stitches is on Wellman Avenue, about a mile northeast of downtown, run by two sisters who learned to stitch from their mother.

That makes this a short page, and the planning is all about the hours.

Wellman Avenue

The hours are the thing to plan around

The shop opens Tuesday to Saturday. Thursday is the late day, until 6pm, and Saturday closes early, at 2pm. It is closed on Sundays and Mondays.

Before you go

• Call ahead. With one shop in the city, there is no second option if the hours have changed.
• 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.

FAQ

Is there another needlepoint shop in the Huntsville area?

Not one we have been able to confirm. If you know one, tell us and we will check it.

Can I learn here as a beginner?

Yes. Sister Stitches runs classes in stitching, painting, and finishing, and anyone can join its stitch nights and daytime stitching groups. The dates are on its site.

New to needlepoint?

If you are heading to the shop for the first time, it helps to know roughly what you are looking at before you walk in.

• How to start needlepoint, for what a first kit needs to contain.
• Mesh count explained, for the number on every canvas label.
• Thread types, for the wool, cotton, and silk question.
• Choosing a first kit, for pre-printed against hand-painted.

Shop details were checked in September 2026 against the shop's own listings. Hours change, so please call ahead. If something here is out of date, or your shop is missing, tell us and we will fix it.
