Such a relief!

Such a relief at last to find an online shop that can supply me with Appletons shade cards! Although not an embroiderer, I've been using Appletons crewel wool to stitch felt without sawing through it as happens with ordinary sewing cotton. It's very hard to match the wool to the felt while we're on lockdown, so the shade cards are a blessing as well as absolutely luscious. I've wanted them for other projects for several years, but only recently have tracked them down to this very delightful and helpful shop. The boxed set of cards were sent within the time scale stated, and arrived a little slowly because of burdens on Royal Mail during the pandemic. Thank you so much, Cleopatra's Needle: my designing and stitching can go ahead with ease now!

Without doubt one of the nicest…

Without doubt one of the nicest companies I have contacted during Lockdown. Professional, helpful, they know their huge range of products inside out and also have a brilliant sense of humour when set the challenge of tracking down wool from a tapestry kit bought in 1989.
My challenge is to finish it this year.
Many thanks to Robert & the Team.

Tapestry wool

Very happy with my purchases. It took a while to get here, but I expect that is due to the unprecedented situation we find our selves in.

Tapestry wool colour matching service

I found this company online after searching for a match to my Appletons or Anchor tapestry wool which had been included with a kit purchased many years ago. Through their excellent website, communication and service I was supplied with the perfect match to the samples I sent. I would highly recommend.

Excellent experience

Excellent experience. I accidentally ordered the wrong tapestry wool for my mother and called up to see if the order could be changed. The gentleman I spoke with was super friendly and helpful and rearranged the order and expedited it for me and my mum was thrilled with the product. Very grateful! Thanks!
