Updates

Back in 2020 Mill Hill had issues with beads, this has flowed over onto kits and i am having great trouble accessing the range available, i have therefore taken the action of marking them out of stock until i can obtain them, as some are waiting 12 months plus for the kits, i will go through and start refunding those that have been waiting an eternity, but this will take me some time. I do apologise but this one is out of my hands……..As stock becomes available i will get them on order and back in stock asap

Hi everyone, said I would pop in once I knew what was going on.

Roughly 4 weeks ago my blood tests all returned telling us my cancer had returned hence why I couldn’t say anything till after a barrage of tests yesterday. Christmas was wonderful thinking of this I tell you my mind has been all over.

Well it turns out after 9 hours in hospital everything is clear, colonoscopy, gastroscopy both clear, 2 yes 2 iron infusions later they gave me a clean bill of health

I have been advised though after the last few days of colonoscopy prep, absolutely no sleep or very very little, that I need another 24-48 hours just to rest and rejuvenate, so am taking their advice and the shop will be on a go slow when I reopen tomorrow, so apologies in advance will be caught up over weekend, but for now just taking things at a very non Janet pace and getting my mind into gear with I am sill in remission and no cancer, might sound odd, but when you spend 4 weeks thinking you have cancer again it takes time to adjust back to normal you are good.

This basically just means for today and tomorrow 16th/17th January i am playing catch up mode, have woken with severe headache which was to be expected so orders are just a little slow in leaving, hoping though to catch up on the weekend and have the shop running back in normal mode by Monday, so if you can please bear with me during this time it would be appreciated…..

Hi all, just a quick note to let you know the shop will be unattended from 4pm Tuesday January 14th until Thursday 9am January 16th. Unfortunately i have to take a quick trip into hospital, will update on my return with results. There will be no postage on Thursday January 16th due to anaesthetic brain on the Wednesday, so i wont be going anywhere near a computer on that day, i tend to make a few to many errors when not thinking clearly.

Janet

apologies all slight delay on orders, Janet has taken pretty sick and had yesterday off she is worse today so will not be in shop, we do apologise and will ensure orders are worked on before long and on their way to you. As she is the only one with access to Xero and aus post it is just slightly delaying things.

All in stock Lowery now reduced Sale finishes 5pm Wednesday December 18th yes my birthday!!!!!!!!!!!

Unless sold out earlier, no back orders on sale items……..New stock arrives January

And JKS is getting ready for a huge Christmas season…….

In stock now are coloured Lowery stands, as well as the silver/grey and stainless, so if you are thinking of getting one grab them whilst in stock….I do have a Saffron coming which should be here Tues/Wed…but this is last lot before Christmas.

Also as a little thank. you every order from December 1st will have a little bonus in it, along with your free minder, ranging from thread to chart, to a lucky dip from the retreat………while stocks last!!!!!!!!!!!

In all honesty i would give it a few extra days as being the silly season things are bound to get caught up and i DO NOT guarantee that goods will be there in time

This does not include envelopes which can take 2-3 weeks although i put priority stickers on every one to help speed things up.

Thank you everyone for your patience whilst i was closed due to the retreat. The retreat itself was a roaring success and another bigger and better is planned for 2026. I wil let you know when organised

On return to the shop i had over 500 emails so am slowly playing catch up and also stocktaking at the same time………

Happy shopping

At present the website is experiencing an issue with back orders and notifying customers. If this happens an email will be sent through to you when i reach your order to notify. We are looking into this and hope to have it rectified before long
