For sale - crafty books and vintage sewing patterns

It's no secret that I've amassed a rather large quantity of stitching paraphernalia over the years. Too much to get through in a lifetime, in fact! So, after a ruthless Spring clean I've identified some items that could do with a new, loving home. Before listing them on eBay, I thought I'd give my dear readers first dibs.

I'm happy to ship anywhere in the world, although I don't think it will be cost-effective to post the books abroad. If you do live outside of the UK, be mindful that my prices are for 2nd class signed for postage within the UK - so I'd have to re-calculate the cost of shipping to you.

If you're interested, just leave a comment with the email address linked to your paypal account and I'll send you an invoice.

  1. Hello. You may want to check the maths on your listings. As £8 + £2 is not £12

    1. Hi there, thanks for your interest. I've just looked it up and it should cost £2.50 to send it normally and £7.90 to send it signed for. Let me know what you think...
