Happy New Year folks! Hoping all our lovely stitchers had a good Christmas. I’m a little late to welcoming 2024, and I’m not officially open until next week, but we have lots of work happening behind the scenes. I’m super busy putting some new colour packs together, working on some new variegated colours and also getting all the Perle 8 threads photographed and up in the website. We are also a little under staffed for the next few months, but more on that in a different post! Wishing you all the very best for the New Year - here’s to lots of new projects! . . . #paintboxthreads #handdyed #handdyedthreads #handdyedfabric #dyersofinstagram #handdyersofinstagram #embroidery #embroiderersofinstagram #embroiderythread #embroiderythreads #quilting #quiltingthread #quiltersofinstagram #stitch #stitchersofinstagram

Hello all the lovely stitching folks out there! Just a few Christmas dates and info for you: Our last UK post for Christmas is Monday (18th Dec) so please order over the weekend if you want anything for Christmas. I will continue to post out during next week, but it may not reach you for the holidays. I am closing the studio for Christmas at 4pm Thursday 21st Dec and will be back on the 8th of January. Orders placed over this period will get sent out the week of the 8th. A very huge thank you to all our community - local and online - for everything this year. A Very Merry Christmas and Holiday period to you all!!! 🎄🎄🎄 . . . #paintboxthreads #handdyed #handdyedfabric #handdyedthreads #embroidery #embroiderersofinstagram #quilting #quiltersofinstagram #stitch #stitchersofinstagram #smallbusiness #herefordshire #leominster_uk #christmas #christmasdecorations
