Sewing-themed notebooks & gifts – made to be used, loved, and gifted.
Yep -you just found the UK’s largest all-in-one vintage sewing gift shop — it’s weird, it’s wonderful, it’s necessary.
From nostalgic sewing-themed notebooks to jewellery, mugs, and home décor, everything here is lovingly designed for makers who see beauty in every stitch.
If you came here hunting for fabric or a new seam ripper, sorry – you’ve wandered into something far more dangerous: the sewing gift shop you didn’t know you needed.
Vintage soul. 100% sewist-approved.
Home & Living
From sewing-themed mugs to canvas prints – perfect for every cosy corner.
We’re currently shipping across the UK only while we get our US store ready to reopen soon.
(If you’re visiting from across the pond — don’t panic! You can still grab our notebooks on Amazon – the same beautiful designs, just in paperback format instead of the spiral-bound versions available here.)
Made to order.
Please allow 5–7 working days for production before dispatch.
Delivery times vary by product — see individual listings for details.
