Hi Folks! Due to an urgent hospital appointment the shop is shut this Thursday (23rd April).

Sorry to anyone who was hoping to come and see us. We should be back open next week as usual, but do check the website just in case.

Paint-Box Threads

We are the home of beautiful artisan threads and fabrics; all hand dyed from our studio in the heart of the Herefordshire country side and beloved by many stitchers and artists worldwide.
