Thank you to everyone who joined us in 2023! Sign up here to join our November 2024 event beginning.

Give Back Friday is our alternative to Black Friday and is focused on donating to great causes, giving back to our community, and supporting our small, family business by giving those who have been waiting, the chance to purchase our kits at a discount.

This year our Give Back Friday event will take place on 24-26 November. During that time, we will reveal a range of short-term offers on our kits, as well as host live sessions with some very special guests.

The event will be open to subscribers only, so if you don't currently subscribe to our newsletter and you have requested to accept marketing, you won't receive the password. Please sign up now to take part! We will publish more details soon.

Giving Back....

This year, as part of our Give Back Friday Event, we are supporting two charities we know who are improving lives through embroidery.

Help Heal Veterans (USA)
Sew Positive (Cambridge, UK) 

We will be supporting these two wonderful organisations, who we also supported last year, by sending them a large stash of embroidery materials and threads for their members to use. Phillipa will also be offering a free tutorial to their members in the New Year. 

What do you have to do to be part of the event?

★ Sign up to our Give Back Friday subscriber list now! Then stay connected and check your email on Friday 24th November. Our Give Back Friday website will be will be live until Sunday night at midnight UK time.

If you would rather avoid Black Friday altogether, you can buy at any time knowing that you are supporting our small, local, women-led business and that your purchase contributes to the preservation of historic embroideries through our year-round donations to British castles, country houses and museums.

Needlework is an investment, of time as well as money. It is slow, it takes dedication and commitment. It requires a mind-set geared to enjoying the journey while being committed to the finish. In return it can give us satisfaction, an heirloom to pass down, a deep sense of peace, and often a community to be part of. There is so much to celebrate about needlework, and these qualities become even more important as we move towards Christmas. We hope all these incredible qualities can be celebrated during this festive season!
