Great store with lots of different gift ideas or bring in your own item to be embroidered - professional staff with a eye for detail especially for the noncreative type like me. Very satisfied customer for over 15 years.

Looking for a special gift? You can find any number of items to personalize at Initial Encounter in Pequannock, My favorite gift for a newborn is a teddy bear blankie. Donna (the store's owner) can help you pick out the right shade and writing to monogram the heart on the blankie. This is a gift that can be used, washed repeatedly, and will still look great. I've gone to the store many times and can always find something great to give for any and all occasions. I always pick something out from their stock, but Donna has told me that she can embroider or monogram on things that I purchase on my own. The store workers will provide assistance, but will also let you look around without being bothered. What more could you ask for in a shop filled with ideas?.Margaret
