  • hi, Siamese Craft Stitcher have a great range at great prices. I have bought from her several times so can recommend.

    Ehrman's sometimes have nice ones reduced in the sale. The full prices are quite dear but not the most expensive I've seen.
    Here's a link http://www.ehrmantapestry.com/ Click on "Shop" and then "On Sale". They currently have 94 in the sale section, the cheapest is £19.95. Delivery is another £4,95 unfortunately.

    I've not actually bought from their website. They had a shop in Kensington Church Street for years and I bought many items from there.

    Hi.
    I can recommend www.sewandso.co.uk, a lot of us Cross Stitchers use them as they are good prices and give really good service.

    However, have you tried ebay? Lots of people sell new kits that they have changed their minds about (including me) just use BNIP (brand new in packet) or New in the title and most of what comes up should be ok as a gift. Study the description and picture carefully as if someone has already sorted the threads it will be obvious it is not new.
