A Seneca fabric and crafting store is enjoying the new, larger location it moved into earlier this month.
Cris-Cross Sewing, which had formerly shared a space with Dapa Decor in the old Cranberry High School, moved into the former Citizens Bank building at 3154 Route 257 in Seneca at the beginning of November, and owner Chris Cozad says the store has been doing well in its new location.
“It’s been steady,” Cozad said Wednesday, adding that at the old location, customers could be “few and far between,” and she had also been wanting to move into a bigger space.
Cozad said she will also do special orders.
She added that after Christmas, she is planning to knock out three of the interior walls to expand the space even more.
Cozad started Cris-Cross Sewing in 2010, but didn’t have a store location until moving into the shared space with Dapa Decor this March. Dapa Decor has since also moved and is now in the Grove City Outlets, Cozad said.
After the closure of Joann Fabrics at the Cranberry Mall earlier this year, local fabric stores like Cris-Cross Sewing, as well as Quilters’ Cupboard at 3344 Route 257, have been working to fill the void for local sewers, quilters and crafters.
