I am very happy

I am very happy with my needlepoint kit! There was a mix-up with my order but Storyteller Stitchery was very prompt and kind in fixing it and I am very satisfied with how it worked out. I especially love their arwen threads, I think they're so pretty but they're also just really pleasant to work with, very smooth. I haven't had a chance to stitch with their silk threads but I'm sure they're nice as well and very beautiful. I have already ordered two more kits and will likely buy from this store again in the future.

These stitch markers image are so detailed. They are delightfully light.

I love working with Seren

I love working with Seren. The combination of wool and silk makes a very soft thread.

Loving It

I absolutely love the gentle variance to the green, it adds a beautiful depth to the stitchwork.
