Hello everyone
This week I have been busy as a bee clearing shipments, packing products and re-stocking the ETSY SHOP
South Africans will find all the South African Rand prices listed at the top of each product – so when placing an order if you could email me with a list of the products you want I can send you details to do an EFT. Hopefully this will make life easier for you?
As you know I have spent many months (years) researching the best fabrics for use in needle painting embroidery, and have settled on 3 fabrics that will cater for all needs – Cotton Satin for general med – large designs, 200 ct cotton muslin for miniatures and detailed designs and have finally managed to source the premium of all fabrics Irish Cambric linen which although costly is gorgeous and can be used for any form of embroidery with or without a backing fabric. You will find details for each fabric listed in the shop. In response to your requests you will be pleased to see that fabric by the half metre is now available in all three fabrics, here it is FABRIC. This means that you will now be able to cut several pieces of the size you need without being limited to pre-cut pieces.


Over the last 6 months I have had numerous requests to make the Sacred Kingfisher available in kit form – I think many of you felt daunted at the prospect of tracing your own outline, so here it is all beautifully screen printed for you. SACRED KINGFISHER KIT.

The TRADITIONAL COLOUR BOOKLETS & INTRODUCTION TO MINIATURE NEEDLE PAINTING BOOKLETS are back in stock as are many of the other items that have been short for a while.


The popular MINIATURE BLUEBIRDS & DAISIES kit is back in stock and the next week or so I have a surprise for you – a few new kit designs are on their way.

Meantime wherever you are be it winter, spring or summer have a lovely weekend and happy stitching. Trish
