FDC is a 'needle lady'. No, that doesn't mean she likes to be annoying (though she does...she is my…read moresister after all!), it means she loves doing needlepoint. It's her principal form of relaxation. I don't needlepoint, however I have always enjoyed strolling around shops with her looking at all the beautiful patterns and finished works. She swears though that I have an 'eye' for a good pattern, which I think is just flattery because otherwise why would I go? No matter. So it's no surprise that on our beautiful spring Hooky Day that we would go by a needlepoint shop. Scrim Discovery is tucked away on a side street off the main 'drag' of Ocean City - 9th Street AKA where you come in off the main bridge to the island. You enter through a lovely awning covered porch of a mixed retail/commercial building - they share their building with a plumbing business. Inside there are needlepoint patterns all over, some even on the ceiling. They're more or less grouped by theme, with an area decorated like Christmas, beach themes, some other patterns, sports, etc. They have a framing area and a section devoted to threads and needles. The store is clean and bright, and there are some comfy chairs for people to sit and do their work in if they like too. The owner is a woman who clearly understands and loves needlepoint, so much so that she told us that this doesn't even feel like a job to her, at the end of the day she almost doesn't want to leave. It shows in the way she's curated and merchandised her store and the service she provides. FDC chose some beautiful hand painted designs to work on, and we were sent off with good wishes and smiles. The prices are in-line with what she expects to pay for hand painted quality patterns. I'm certain we will be back.

To be honest, I'm a bit tired of the mass-produced items that most swag providers offer: put a logo on a bottle opener or slap the company branding on a mass-produced T-shirt. And so a few years ago I was doing some online research on small businesses or nonprofits that produce possibly-customizable gifts...ideally businesses with a mission that is in line with our company's mission. I came across MudGirls Studios and added them to a spreadsheet...and then I actually forget about this list for a while. Then this year I was looking for a special gift for a certain population in our company and I thought back to said list. I reached out to the email on the MudGirls website and soon after I got a response from Dorrie. (Dorrie later told me that she thought I was spamming her and that I wasn't real.) Over the next few weeks and months, Dorrie and I developed actually two gifts: a custom-branded mug and a custom-branded ramen bowl. I'm very excited to send these to my colleagues next year for their very special work anniversary! Thank you, Dorrie, for all that you do and for responding to my initial email. I love your organization's mission and I love the work that you do. Here's their mission: "MudGirls Studios is a non-profit 501(c) (3) organization that empowers disadvantaged women through training and employment. MudGirls Studios helps women transition onto a pathway towards self-sufficiency and out of poverty. We use clay as our vehicle to change lives through their own creations and sales of functional art and aesthetic utilitarian objects. These women gain a source of long-term supplemental income along the way."
