We're Moving!!!

3 Kittens will be moving to a new location in August!  We're very excited about our soon-to-be new home at The Village at Mendota Heights, located at the intersection of Dodd Rd and Hwy 110 in Mendota Heights (on the northeast corner).  The new store is only a few minutes away from our current location - just one exit south on 35E and less than a mile east from there.

The Village at Mendota Heights is a new mixed-use development with condos, apartments, retail stores (such as Sage Market, Caribou Coffee, E's Cheese and Coldstone Creamery), services (Anytime Fitness, a salon, Snyder's Drugs), and offices.  In addition, there's a lovely little square with seating and a fountain, so we can move outside on pleasant days for stitching in the park.

Our space will be just a tiny bit smaller than our current store, but much more efficient.  Plus, we're the first tenant in the space, so we get to set it up as we like with plenty of fantastic light and displays just as we want them.  We're having a great time working with our architects to come up with the ideal design for the space!

We'll let you know our actual move date as soon as we know it.  At this point, we hope to be in both locations for a week or two to ease the transition.  If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask us!
