Four months to go for Christmas Gifts.

What can be nicer than a hand made Christmas gift? The hours of work devoted to it make the whole thing so much more meaningful and precious. There is still time to get stitching and make something personal for a grandchild, or maybe a son, daughter, parent or your best friend. Perhaps there is a milestone wedding anniversary coming up. We have all the big ones - Diamond, Gold, Ruby and Silver but they could be adapted to any anniversary using the alphabet charts provided in the kits. All our Christmas Stockings can be personalised and if you don't manage to get them finished in the next four months, not to worry.....Christmas will be back again next year.

Plain sailing

The summer is here and whatever the weather, there is plenty to keep an eye on while you are stitching. As I write, we are in the middle of Cowes Week. The Regatta Tapestry is a stunning sunny seasidey design that will keep you smiling as you stitch. It couldn't be easier to do, so if you are half watching something else at the same time....

Christmas must be coming!

This is normally the time of year when there is so much to do that needlepoint hardly gets a look in. But not this year it seems. I cannot believe how busy I have been, sending out new orders for needlepoint/ tapestry kits. There has even been a rush for Christmas Stockings and Decorations, so stitchers are already planning ahead.
If you prefer to enjoy the summer before launching into Christmas, we have plenty of summery designs that are perfect for your holiday, whether you spend it at home or away. Needlepoint tapestry is very portable. The printed canvas means you don't have to concentrate really, so you can take it with you whatever your plans for the holidays.
