All of our patterns and bead packs are now back in stock, including Chris’s latest design Cirque Visage.

The Cirque Visage Pattern with word chart will no longer be available from us so will show as discontinued.

Our special delivery of DB202 has arrived and is now back in stock on the website.

Over the last few days I have added some goldwork thread bundles to the website. There are only 1 or 2 available of most bundles, but we have part reels of all the threads that make up Variety Pack #1 (pictured below). It’s anyone’s guess how much thread is on each reel!

We are open to offers for the rest of this stock, so if you are interested in a bulk purchase please ring us for a chat on 01254 236049.

I have just added some mixed packs of threads to the website. There are Mettler Metrosene Plus, Mettler Quilting, and Gutermann Polyester threads.

Most of them are in packs of 22 x 100m reels for £20.00, that’s just 91p per reel! You will see from the stock levels that we don’t have many left.

The photo attached to each product shows the colours you will get, and there is a breakdown of the contents (using the branded colour numbers) under the main description.

Here are a couple of samples, but you should head over to the Embroidery Clearance page to see them all. Just follow this link https://www.halfpenneys.co.uk/product-category/emb-clearance/fabric-wools/

All the beads that were delivered yesterday have now been put back in stock, including DB010, DB200, DB202 and DB351. The beads I need for the rainbow brooches also arrived, so I will be getting those back in stock later today.

White Nymo is now also back in stock – hurray.

Sadly DB202 did not arrive so we will have to get another order in very soon.

New colours will be posted very soon!

You can now find these beads available online. There is one colour of Miyuki size 11 seed bead, packed in 25g. The Delica size 11 beads are available in 10g or 1g packs – prices shown are for 10g.

I have added some extra things to the embroidery clearance section to make way for more bead stock!

The new categories are “embroidery accessories and tools” and “wools and fabrics”. There are some absolute bargains for embroiderers, including bundles of DMC Medici wool , Aida, Linens, and water soluble backings.

Have a rummage and see what you can find. When they’re gone, they’re gone!

I have completed the colour family update for the size 6, 8, 11 and 15 seed beads. You may remember that I completed the Delica beads a little while ago.

Where the colour name is something like turquoise, rose, or seafoam for example, then a search by colour may not have found them. I have added a colour family to the description, so that searches will find them. So, for example if you now put blue in the search, then turquoise beads will also be found, and a search for pink will find rose ones.

I hope that you find this a useful feature when you are looking for beads by colour.

You may also notice an alternative reference that I have included in the description. Some of you may recognise this number and it is the number given by our wholesaler and may help with global searches by reference number.

After having been out of stock for a while, I’m pleased to say that I have managed to get some more letter beads in different colours for my pins. I have had a busy time sorting them all out into full alphabet sets and also making some of them into Pin sets. Bead and Pin sets are also available in White.
