Newsletter April 2021

Greetings to all our fellow patchworkers.

Just keeping in touch with all our valued customers and friends. We are continuing to be open during the current health crisis and there have been many customers glad we have been able to supply them with fabric and threads and all the other requirements they needed to sew at home during this time.

Should mention also all the embroiderers and knitters who have also stocked up on their requirements. Thank you! The DMC stand has had to restocked several times!

The Magnum 8ply and Patons baby wools have been in great demand and I have also ordered 12ply Magnum in nine colours which should be arriving any day soon. Patons have produced this yarn in response to many requests and I have purchased all the colours they are offering currently.

Many thanks to all the customers who have purchased from the website. I have been very grateful for all the support, so far we have been able to fulfill all many and varied requests. Remember any order over $100.00 before postage will receive a free magazine with the order!

A number of parcels have been slower to arrive than usual and I can only suggest that this is a result of all the extra online ordering that has been happening generally and Australia Post is struggling to keep up with the deliveries. Please be patient, your parcel will arrive! We always post the same day as the order arrives or the next business day if you order at the weekends.  

I must let you know we have both black and white homespun back in stock. This has been in great demand in recent weeks and I think every wholesaler in the country must have run out too, as we could not get it at all for several weeks. However, we have good stocks of both now so there is enough for everyone again.

We have also restocked the Fossil Fern shelves as some of them were getting low on the bolt. There’s still a couple out of stock but we should be receiving those very soon.

I have been busy during this time making a lot of baby and children’s quilts. I have finished several I Spy quilts that had been waiting for quilting and also have made the Peter Rabbit and Winnie the Pooh panels into quilts for the shop. There is also a lovely panel called Sweet Dreams that I did, and this would suit either boy or girl as it is in neutral colours.

I am sure you all will have finished quilts too during this time so please take advantage of the long arm quilting service I offer and get them quilted now.

Until next time then, keep well and stay safe.

Happy Stitching from
