Covid-19 Update
We, like you, are extremely concerned about the developing and ever-changing news concerning the Coronavirus pandemic. The UK Government has now taken further and more aggressive steps reduce the spread of the virus by insisting that people must stay at home and stop all but essential travel.
The safety of our staff is of utmost importance to us. We are therefore all now dispersed to our various homes to carry out what work we can from there. Phillipa and Richard are fulfilling orders with the backup of everyone working remotely.
We have postponed our up coming July 4 Nations Tour, which has been rescheduled to September 2021 or April 2022. All other future events are unaffected at this time and (see more recent post separately about the Lady Anne's Festival).
We are digging deep here in Appleby and turning to ideas and projects we didn't have time for before. We are taking stock and using this time to rest, take care of ourselves, and stitch more. We are going to post as much free video content as we can over the next few weeks and months, and hope to encourage you take the opportunity to stitch along with us. Time to dig out that unfinished project and put some stitches in. We will be here to interact and answer any questions.
Phillipa is recording videos from her home on most days and is posting them to Facebook and through our newsletter. She invites you to take refuge in the rhythm and peace needlework offers us. You can also access these videos on the How To section of our Website.

Do you sell gift vouchers? My family live a long way away and I thought it would be something that they could buy for me.

I am in rented accommodation in the countryside waiting until the lock down is lifted and I can move into my new home. I am now sure I will finish the Glasgow Bedspread here as there is plenty of time to get on with it and I have only one last A3 panel to complete. I have taken much longer than you other clever stitchers to do it, but I have enjoyed every minute since I started almost THREE years ago!!
Will order a new kit soon. Loving the videos Phillipa and wishing you and all the Crewel work community a safe journey through these difficult days.

I am very pleased to say that every day I am in my conservatory doing my crewelwork kits! Its been a wonderful opportunity but like many people I have spoken to, we all seem to have ‘a very strange feeling’ caused by this pandemic.
