My collection started as a child with an old button box and some vintage embroidery threads given to me by my late grandmother. Over the years I have collected many vintage and retro items (note I only cut into pieces that are too damaged or marked to be used in their original form) as well as a whole sewing room full of bits and pieces. I decided I would use some of this collection to create curated boxes for the newly re-discovered art of slow stitching. Get yourself a cup of tea, and relax with a needle and thread.

Recommended for adults and children over 14. Warning: Contains pins and needle with a functional sharp point. Keep out of reach of small children. Allergen: wool contains lanolin, vintage fabrics have unknown materials and dyes.

I absolutely love my vintage bookmark, the fabrics are gorgeous and my Christmas felt decoration is perfect for my fresh tree in December. Stitching is spot on. Thank you, Sharon. Prompt delivery, packaged beautifully in white tissue paper.

Three gorgeous tags with vintage silk and lace. These are my favourite fabrics along with velvet. The fabrics on the tags are delightful. And the small buttons are so cute. Stitching is perfect. Absolutely love them. Thank you, Sharon.
