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.
