They will present styles from their Fall/Winter 2019 Collection at Champagne & Chapeau 2 hosted by Row House Gallery & Custom Framing on Saturday, Nov. 9. Row House is located at 211 Main Street in historic Milford, Ohio 45150.

“We love making distinctive hats,” Mary Ward, partner, Two Stitches, said. “We have enhanced our millinery skills over the past five years to include an array of hats using various millinery techniques including blocking, flat pattern millinery, crochet, and wet and needle felting. We also create unique embellishments to establish each hat’s character.”

Champagne & Chapeau 2 will start at 11 a.m. and run to 3 p.m. at Row House. The event is open to the public, and customers can expect to find the latest styles in the Fall/Winter 2019 Millinery Collection by Two Stitches along with exceptional pricing on selected F/W 2018 hats.

In addition, a drawing will allow customers a chance to win tickets to Winterfair Cincinnati – an annual art extravaganza held over Thanksgiving weekend at the Northern Kentucky Convention Center where Two Stitches Millinery will have a booth.

“Champagne & Chapeau 2 will coincide with Milford’s 2nd Saturday event for November,” Nancy Meyer, owner, Row House Gallery & Custom Framing, said. “It’s a great way to feature local artists, and our 2nd Saturday events offer opportunities for customers to visit shops and eateries in the historic district, many of which will have special activities and offers to enjoy.”
