ADVENT BOX ~ PLEASE CHOOSE FROM THE FOLLOWING OPTIONS:

Quantity: at £250.00 each

This is the pre-order listing for our 2026 Advent box!

Sarah says... "For the main project in this years very special and exclusive Advent box, you will be stitching an embroidery sampler inspired by my take on a traditional bell pull..... yes there will be a jingly bell!!! Over the four weeks in Advent you will be stitching five separate festive folk inspired motifs, there is a little sneaky peek of one of these in the image above. As you would expect, by the end of Advent everything will be included to enable you to sew your sampler into a beautiful hand quilted wall hanging, to be enjoyed for future years to come!

In addition, you'll also receive four mini kits and of course, you will also find a selection of 'little happy' extras, either designed or especially chosen by me, for you! I have loved creating the projects included in this very special box for you and each one has as always had my heart and soul put in to every stitch! "

What is inside the box and when do I open the parcels?

We're sticking with our tried and tested recipe. The idea is, that on each of the four Sunday's in Advent, starting on Sunday 29th November, there will be three festive parcels full of loveliness for you to open. These will be clearly labeled week 1, week 2 and so on, twelve in total.

Main Project Parcels - In week one, you will receive the bell pull sampler, pre-printed on to my favourite beautifully soft, off white cotton/linen fabric and ALL the embroidery threads required. Whilst the pre-printed design will be revealed in full in week one, you will be be stitching the sampler in stages. In week one you will be stitching the first of the five motifs. In weeks two and three, you will receive further written instructions to enable you to stitch the remaining four motifs. In week four, you will receive your finishing pack which includes the wadding, backing and binding fabric and this is when you will be turning your embroideried sampler into a beautiful hand quilted wall hanging. The sampler will provide many hours of festive happy stitches to keep you occupied and entertained!

Mini Kit Parcels - This year there are four stand alone mini kits all are 100% hand sewn. Two will be gorgeous wool/rayon felt Christmas Decoration kits and in the remaining two, you can expect some EPP, applique and embroidery....lots of happy stitches!

'Little Happy' Extra Parcels - Finally, we will include a 'little happy' extra parcel each week... this could be one of Sarah's favourite sewing notions that will come in handy to help you complete the projects or a little something either designed by or chosen by Sarah just for you!.

All the projects will contain all the fabrics, felt and fripperies needed to complete it. This includes if required:

Our beautifully soft, cotton/linen fabric for the sampler and where needed will come pre-printed with the embroidery designs, so no need to transfer
All the embroidery threads required.
12wt thread for the hand quilting.
100% cotton fabric for the lining, backing and binding.
100% cotton wadding, so the sampler is nice and squishy.
Gorgeous wool/rayon felt for the decorations.
Pre-cut shapes for the EPP decorations.
All the fripperies such as jingly bells, twine etc
And of course detailed instructions and full size template sheets.

Dimensions of the Main Project:

The completed Sampler is quite large and will measure 7" x 30" approx.

What other supplies will I need?

Your usual patchwork and sewing related tools and notions.
Plus as detailed above, a small amount of stuffing, this could be toy stuffing, wool stuffing, even offcuts of felt or fabric cut into little pieces or cotton wool!

Internation Buyers are responsible for any tax/duty that is due upon receipt of the package. For our US Customers, your parcel will be sent via Royal Mail's Postal Delivered Duties Paid (PDDP) shipping service.

We can not also accept responsibilty for International orders that are held up in customs.

Whilst we will carefully wrap your box and it's contents, Customs Officers can and may open packages to spot check the items. Unfortunately, should this occur, it is out of out control and regrettably, we cannot be held responsible for damage to parcels, in this case.

Very occasionally we are unable to post to an International destination due to Sanctions or regulations, the postal service not being available or because of previous problems that we have experienced. If this were to occur then we would advise you at the earliest opportunity and provide you with a full refund. This sadly does include the EU and Northern Ireland, as a result of the new GPSR regulations.

Yes, of course! You can pay for your box in four equal monthly payments.

UK ~ £62.50 per month
Channel Island ~ £52.50 per month
International ~ £58.25 per month

When will I receive my box?

Our plan is to post the boxes mid October, earlier if we can*.... but in plenty of time for Christmas.....so just remember, no peeking is allowed and don't forget where you hide them!

*If you are away on holiday from say mid September onwards, please add a note at checkout or pop us an email so we can post your box upon your return.

FINALLY, BEFORE PURCHASING THIS LISTING PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING:

We are a small family business and to ensure that we can prepare and post your box as promised, we order ALL the supplies required in advance, based upon your commitment when you purchase this pre-order. We therefore politely ask that you make absolutely certain that you wish to commit prior to purchasing this listing.

Should you need to cancel your box, please note that we will provide a refund of monies paid, excluding the £5 Reservation fee if paying in instalments, MINUS a £25 admin fee if cancelled by 15th September 2026. Orders cancelled after the 15th September 2026 will only be eligible for a refund of monies paid, excluding the £5 Reservation fee if paying in instalments MINUS a £25 admin fee, once we have resold your box.

We appreciate and understand that it is a big investment to pre-order an Advent Box. Therefore, if you would like to see a little more of the main project before committing to a box, then please email Sarah. In order to maintain the surprise element of the box, this is however sent on the strict understanding that this must not be shared with anyone else either in person or digitally. And under no circumstances on any social media platform. This service (available Monday to Friday) will be withdrawn once all our Advent Box pre-orders have sold out.

In order to maintain the spirit of the Advent box, whilst you are free to open and start sewing the projects included prior to Advent, please do not share your progress early. We would ask that you do not reveal the mini kit designs until the appropriate week and the full Bell Pull Sampler design must not be revealed in its entirety until after the week 4 parcels have been opened on the 20th December 2026. Thank you so much in advance for your understanding.

We regret, the Christmas Box cannot be shipped with other shop orders or other Subscription/Block of the Month parcels, we're sorry for any inconvenience!
