The Thread Smith

Hello! It’s been a while eh? Are you safe and well? I hope so.
After a little break I’ve got back to the machine, a nice new shiny new one at that. A fabulous jacket alternation for a very dapper chap and a t-shirt blanket full of treasured memories for a fabulous lady who champions some amazing causes.
More stuff coming up very soon, including zoom!

Hello folks, I hope you’re all safe and well? Couple of updates for you:

My new industrial machine will hopefully arrive by 18th December. Delayed due to Covid which is understandable. I’ll aim to clear all outstanding heavyweight or decorative orders by new year.

New needles should arrive today so any jackets, lightweight orders and memory bear requests can commence again 💗

If you’ve made and enquiry for a bear please can you contact me before dropping off any materials and feel free to ask any question about quarantine of your material/items. This is usually 72 hours before I can start pattern cutting. Items must be bagged please.

The order book is now full until the new year 😊

Thank you to everyone for your kind support and custom. I’ve very much valued this and you’ve kept me going through some tough times.

Have a fabulous festive break, stay safe and keep well x

Hi everyone, it’s been a while since I’ve posted anything so I hope you’re all safe and well.

Due to the recent lockdown restrictions, it is with deep regret that anyone with outstanding alteration orders will not be able to visit my workshop until 2nd December. Other outstanding orders are available for doorstep collection and usual updates will be given on progress.

I also have an industrial machine being delivered end of November, so if you’re a customer with an outstanding order and providing you’re happy to wait then I’ll be taking a little break until then.

Stay safe, take good care and don’t hesitate to get in touch with any questions.

Having read that certain supermarkets and clothing retailers have been given instruction that clothes are ‘non essential items ’ I would like to offer the following if further lockdown restrictions apply:
If you find you cannot purchase warm clothing for a child that they need or you need to buy appropriate clothing for an interview if you’ve recently been made redundant and have something in your wardrobe that can be easily altered in both cases, I will do this for free.
