Mornington Wool Centre was established in March 1971 and has been in continuous operation ever since. Over the years there have been a few previous owners and I have owned the business since 1998. Located in a little mall off Main Street, we try to offer a wide selection of knitting yarns, pattern books and craft items and we strive to be as informative and helpful as possible.

Mornington Wool Centre has increased the range of wool and other items in stock continuously over the last eleven years. I have also increased embroidery and beading to the point where when approached by a well know teacher, Helan Pearce, to hold classes I decided to expand and open a shop in Yuilles Road – Mornington Embroidery Centre.

Mornington Embroidery Centre began in April 2004 when Embroidery is "U" closed in Frankston. I bought some of her stock and fittings, transferred excess stock from the wool centre and added lots more. We were up and running with a good range of embroidery threads, beads, jewellery findings, braids, laces, books, handcraft books and of course, Helan's classes and workshops plus a variety of different classes.

In 2007 when Patchwork On The Peninsula decided to close I bought some of their stock and added lots more, so we now carry over 1.200 bolts of fabric  and various patchwork books, patterns and accessories in addition to the previous stock and increased out class list to include patchworking.

We are now know as Mornington Embroidery & Patchwork Centre.
