Merri Stitches,

72 Mirona Road, Portsmouth, NH 03801

"Oh my, this is the place if you enjoy sewing or especially desire to learn something new. I am a returning sewer who left it alone for 30 years. Now, I am restarting. Merri gave me a great deal on an adopted Viking Designer Ruby and I have been in love ever since. I just started taking some classes which I highly recommend. The OPEN SEW Classes are my fave as I can bring in something that I am working on and the experienced teachers can help me do anything with expert instruction. It is so relaxing and informative. I am more interested in trying something new when I get help. And the price is always reasonable at Merri Stitches. See you there!"

"Merri Stitches is a quaint shop with a staff dedicated to quality products, customer service, and assuring their accessibility to every receptive customer for any sewing project they want to take on. I am impressed with the classes offered, pricing, and confidence the owner and her 'peeps' have empowered me to take on quilting as a brand new beginner, and more detailed sewing accomplishments. I know that whatever my machines or I need going forward will be well supported here."

"The staff do not wear masks or socially distance. Would recommend against frequenting thus business. There are many more nearby who take covid prevention more seriously."

"I would avoid this store if you’re concerned about getting Covid! Even though their website says they use masks, they don’t. They also have no concept of social distancing. I was trying to look at fabric and the owner herself was standing 2 feet away from me without a mask. Wasn’t too concerned either when I asked about it. The owner said the NH mask mandate, which is in effect, didn’t apply to them! What?!"

"The staff at Merri Stitches is always so helpful and amazingly creative! They sell quality machines and accessories. Classes are top notch. I feel better buying from Merri Stiches where I know my machine can get serviced and I can take classes and questions will be answered."
