🧵 STOP SCROLLING… THIS ONE’S FOR THE SEWING STASH! 🧵

We’ve got a little something to make your fabric shopping even more tempting… 😏

🎁 BUY ANY 4 METRES OF FABRIC & GET 10 REELS OF SUPER STITCH POLYESTER THREAD — ABSOLUTELY FREE!

Yes… 10 reels. FREE.
Not one. Not two. TEN! 😂

And here’s the fun bit…

📦 The boxes are sealed, so we don’t know which colours are inside.

Which means you get 10 different colours to add to your thread stash. 🌈🧵

Will you get the perfect colour you’ve been searching for?

Will you get a colour you never knew you needed?

Will you simply discover that you apparently need another box to keep your ever-growing thread collection company?

We’re not judging. 😉

🔥 ANY 4 METRES OF FABRIC = 10 REELS OF THREAD FREE

No complicated rules. No secret handshake. Just choose your fabric, grab your free thread and start planning what you’re going to make!

⚠️ Limited stock — when they’re gone, they’re gone!

Tag your sewing buddy who would consider 10 FREE reels of thread a perfectly reasonable excuse to buy more fabric. 👇😂

🎨 And that’s a wrap on our Summer Workshops! 🌸

Our summer workshop programme has come to an end, and our young artists have now swapped their paintbrushes for A-level books and the rather less exciting business of studying! 📚😄

Before they disappeared back into the world of revision, they held one final workshop — Acrylic Painting on Stretched Fabric — and we thought we'd share a couple of the wonderful results.

We think you'll agree… they're pretty fabulous! 🎨✨

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who came along to our summer workshops. It has been brilliant watching you experiment, create, get paint on things you probably didn't intend to get paint on 😂 and, most importantly, have fun.

And of course, a massive thank you to our brilliant student artists for giving up part of their summer to share their skills and enthusiasm with the next generation of crafters and artists. ❤️

👻 Now… who's ready for Halloween? 🎃

We're already planning our Halloween workshops, and this time we're going to shout about them nice and early!

Places will be limited, so if your little artist enjoyed our summer sessions — or you missed out and wished you'd booked — keep your eyes peeled for the Halloween dates.

🎃 Creative
👻 Fun
🖌️ Something they can take home
✨ And absolutely no artistic experience required!

Halloween is coming… and we're going to make it crafty! 👻🎨

Watch this space for dates and booking information.

🧵 FREE THREAD WORTH £19.90! 🎉

We do love a bargain… but this one is rather good! 😍

Buy any 4 metres of fabric - assorted or all the same - and we’ll give you 10 reels of Superstitch polyester thread FREE!

That’s 10 × 500 yards — a whopping 5,000 yards of thread — worth £19.90… and if you bought the equivalent on Amazon, you’d be looking at £32.90! 😲

And there’s NO RESTRICTIONS.
Any fabric. Any design. Just buy 4 metres and the thread is yours!

🧵 4 metres of fabric = 10 FREE reels of thread.

But there’s a catch… we only have a limited number of these freebies.

So, if you fancy turning 4 metres of lovely fabric into a rather impressive sewing haul, you’d better be quick! 😉

The Long Table ❤️

Our long table has been particularly busy today… and we think it might just be the happiest table in the building! 😂

At one end, Veronika, one of our fabulous product testers, was giving Colin a one-to-one painting lesson. Colin is 84 and has decided it’s time to get painting again — and we think that’s absolutely wonderful. 🎨

In the middle, Nikita was quietly getting creative, making display signs for our museum pieces. She may have been quiet… but her creativity certainly wasn’t! ✏️

And down at the farm end, our lovely felting group were happily stabbing away at their creations. We’re never quite sure what will emerge from a felting session, but there are always plenty of smiles along the way! 🐑😂

And tomorrow, the week starts with another lively bunch of crafters who have a remarkable ability to brighten even the dullest of days with their wit, wisdom, creativity and laughter.

We love our long table. We love the people around it. And we love that it’s become a place where creativity, friendship and a little bit of harmless chaos all come together. ❤️

Come and join us sometime — there’s usually something going on! 🎨🧵✂️

The Cotton Rich Mystery 🧐🧵

“Cotton Rich” sounds rather grand, doesn't it? Like the fabric has a private bank account and drives a Bentley. 😂

But what does it actually mean?

Quite simply, cotton rich fabric contains a high percentage of cotton, but it isn't 100% cotton. The remaining fibres are usually something like polyester, viscose or another fibre added to give the fabric different properties.

So, if you're looking for 100% cotton, don't be fooled by the words Cotton Rich — check the fibre composition!

At Craft Outlet Store, we're rather particular about these things. If we say 100% cotton, we mean 100% cotton. No cotton “with a little something extra”. 😉

Because when it comes to fabric, we think you deserve to know exactly what you're buying.

Cotton rich? Lovely.
100% cotton? Even better! ❤️🧵
