Tilda Special
Sunny Days are here again! It's been quieter in the shop this week as everyone is finally able to make the most of the sun at long last. Those gardens are needing attention after the continuous rain and now the warmth. It is so uplifting to look out of my window to see the blue skies outside and everything blooming.
|
|
This week we have had the opportunity to make more kits and check our shop stock. We have been especially looking at Tilda as in just a few weeks we have a huge new collection arriving from Tilda, Creating Memories. It is set to be part of an ongoing basics range and is based on four seasonal colourways - Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. Look below for the delicious bundles available to pre-order.
|
|
|
In order to make room for the 71 new bolts of Tilda fabric, (yes you read that right, 71) expected in June, we have decided to adjust a lot of our existing Tilda fabric prices. Most ranges are now just £12 metre / £3 a long or fat 1/4. They are all limited availability and not repeatable, so once they're gone they are gone for good.
|
|
|
Also in this week are new kits and panels from the lovely Louise Nichols including Swim Little Fishes, and Chickens in the Garden. Perfect for a bit of quiet hand stitching outside in the sun so you can enjoy the weather, some mindfulness and your hobby.
|
|
Happy sewing. We look forward to helping you with all your sewing needs and seeing you in the shop, or chatting on the phone or online.
Best wishes
Sally & the girls

Tilda wanted to make a collection that stood alone and would also serve as basic blender fabrics for other collections. Creating Memories is a glorious selection of both printed small floral designs and beautiful woven cottons. We know these are going to be popular so we want to offer the fat 1/8 and fat 1/4 bundles, charm packs and buttons as pre-order products. These will be sent out for June 15th, the official release date. We will of course be selling the fabrics by the long and fat 1/4 once they are in stock.
|
|
The collection is split into four seasons, Spring with fresh pastels, Summer in Ocean blues, Autumn with rich russets and browns, and Winter in gorgeous faded pinky reds and soft greens. Tilda will have free patterns for each season collection and we will be making up kits for many of them. Which is your favourite season colourway?
