Christmas Gift Guide

Posted on December 02, 2022

With Christmas fast approaching I've recently added some lovely sewing related gift items to our online store. I thought I'd share a few of these with you here to give you some gift inspiration for the "sewist" or "stitcher" in your life... or perhaps even as a treat for yourself... I know I've got my eye on one or two of these suggestions...

We have lots of lovely embroidery Stitch Kits including new to us brand Slow Evenings.
